About this study
Official title: Comparison of Conventional Therapy and Mulligan Mobilization With Movement Method in the Treatment of Shoulder Problems: A Randomized Clinical Trial
To determine whether Mulligan mobilization with movement (MWM) and Conservative treatment CT give different results on pain, ROM, and functional activities in participants with shoulder problems.
Read the detailed description
Shoulder problems are one of the common orthopedic problems. Patients with shoulder problems experience an increase in pain and a decrease in joint movement and functionality. With conventional treatment, patients' symptoms improve. However, the MWM is one of the manual therapy techniques frequently used to reduce pain in musculoskeletal system problems. It is extremely important to evaluate patients' functionality after rehabilitation. Although there are studies comparing the effect of MWM in the literature, studies evaluating patient-specific functionality are also limited.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
CT+MWMOther
The MWM technique was applied to the MWM group in addition to the CT. The MWM technique was applied in flexion, abduction, internal rotation, and external rotation directions. The MWM technique was performed with 3 sets of 10 repetitions.
CTOther
Cold packs, electrotherapy modalities, scapular mobilization, stretching, and strengthening exercises were applied to the CT group.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| MWM Group | Experimental | This group received treatment with the Mulligan technique. Receives: Other: CT+MWM |
| CT Group | Active comparator | This group received treatment with the conventional therapy. Receives: Other: CT |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Shoulder pain
The Numeric Pain Rating Scale was used to evaluate shoulder pain. The patient was asked to mark the point corresponding to the pain between 0 and 10. The higher the score, the higher the pain.
Measured: through study completion, an average of 6 month
Secondary outcomes (2)
ROM
Shoulder flexion, abduction, internal and external rotation were measured using a Universal goniometer.As the angle increases, the joint range of motion increases.
Measured: through study completion, an average of 6 month
Patient Specific Functional Scale
In the patient-specific activity scale, depending on the current pathology, the physiotherapist asks the patient three or five activities that he or she finds difficult to do. The patient is asked to score the activity between 0-10 points. The total score is determined by averaging the activity scores, with higher scores indicating better function.
Measured: through study completion, an average of 6 month
