Spinal Cord Injuries, Shoulder Impingement Syndrome
Freehand Ultrasound to Evaluate Scapular Kinematics in People With Paraplegia
Shoulder pain is very common in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). Persons with high-level paraplegia have higher chances to suffer shoulder pain and injury than those with lower-level paraplegia due to the shoulder muscle…
