What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Suspension systemDevice

    Also called Sling therapy

    suspended from the handles of the straps by either their hands or feet while the non-suspended pair of extremities are in contact with the ground leading to muscle activation due to unstable base of support

  • Scapular training exercisesOther

    Scapular muscle strength by resistance

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pain intensity

    Pain intensity is measured by neumeric pain rating scale the lowest value is 0 means no pain and the highest value is 10 means the worst pain

    Measured: 1week

  2. Function

    Function is measured by neck disability index the total score is 50 as the score is higher the disability is higher

    Measured: 1 week

  3. Scapular muscle strength

    Scapular muscle strength is measured by hand held dynanometer

    Measured: 1week

  4. Scapular position

    Scapular position is measured by lateral scapular slide test

    Measured: 1week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Suspension system and Scapular training exercises in people with Scapular Dyskinesis, run by Cairo University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pain intensity (time frame: 1week). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Jun 2023.
