About this study
Official title: Comparison of Cross Body and Sleeper Stretch on Pain, Range of Motion and Functional Performance in Cricket Bowlers With Glenohumeral Internal Rotation Deficiency(GIRD).
The study is randomized and single-blinded. Ethical approval is taken from ethical committee of Riphah International University, Lahore. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be enrolled and allocated in group A \& B through sealed envelope method by Non-probability Convenient random sampling technique. Subjects in Group A will receive sleeper stretch in a side lying position. Group B will receive cross-body stretch will be done in sitting position
Read the detailed description
The objective of the study is to determine the comparison of sleeper stretch and cross body stretch on pain, range of motion and functional performance in cricket bowlers with GIRD. The study is randomized and single-blinded. Ethical approval is taken from ethical committee of Riphah International University, Lahore. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be enrolled and allocated in group A \& B through sealed envelope method by Non-probability Convenient random sampling technique. Subjects in Group A will receive sleeper stretch in a side lying position. Group B will receive cross-body stretch will be done in sitting position. A universal goniometer, Upper limb functional index (UEFI) scale and Numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) will be used at the baseline and after the completion of treatment at 6 weeks.
The data will be analyzed by SPSS, version 25. Statistical significance is P=0.05.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Sleeper StretchOther
They will receive three sessions a week for four weeks. In a session three sets with three repetitions of sleeper stretch in a side lying position
Cross Body StretchOther
They will receive three sessions a week for four weeks. In a session, three sets with three repetitions of cross-body stretch will be done in sitting position.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Sleeper Stretch | Other | Sleeper stretch in a side lying position in 90o abduction, elbow at 90o flexion and then performing shoulder IR for three sets with three repetitions. Receives: Other: Sleeper Stretch |
| Cross Body Stretch | Other | cross-body stretch will be done in sitting position. Three sets of the each stretch position would be held for 30 seconds with a 1 minute break between sets. Receives: Other: Cross Body Stretch |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Shoulder Pain
Numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) will be used to assess pain.
Measured: pre and 6 weeks post interventional
Range of motion
A universal goniometer will be used to measure ROM
Measured: pre and 6 weeks post interventional
Functional Performance
upper extremity functional index (UEFI) scale to assess functional performance
Measured: pre and 6 weeks post interventional

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Sleeper Stretch and Cross Body Stretch in people with Pain and Range of Motion, run by Riphah International University at 1 site in Pakistan.
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 6 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Feb 2024. 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 Pakistan. 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?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Sana Batool, MS DPT (0336-2504318, sana.fizza@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Shoulder Pain (time frame: pre and 6 weeks post interventional). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06240819, which also lists 8 linked publications.
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 5 Feb 2024.
