Subacromial Impingement Syndrome: the effect of changing posture on shoulder range of movement.
Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 2005Co-Authors: Jeremy Lewis, Christine C. Wright, Ann GreenAbstract:Study Design Random allocation of subjects into a placebo-controlled, crossover study. Objectives To investigate the effect of changing thoracic and scapular posture on shoulder flexion and scapular plane abduction range of motion in asymptomatic subjects, and in subjects with subacromial Impingement Syndrome. Background Changes in upper body posture and concomitant imbalance of the muscle system have been proposed as one of the etiological mechanisms leading to subacromial Impingement Syndrome. Although clinicians commonly assess posture and devise rehabilitation programs to correct posture, there is little evidence to support this practice. Methods and Materials Selected postural, range of movement, and pain measurements were investigated in 60 asymptomatic subjects and 60 subjects with subacromial Impingement Syndrome, prior to and following thoracic and scapular taping intended to change their posture. Results Changing posture had an effect on all components of posture measured (P

Case Presentation Ultrasonography of Subcoracoid Bursal Impingement Syndrome
2015Co-Authors: Shane Drakes, Sunil Thomas, Sooyeon Kim, Luis A. Guerrero, Won LeeAbstract:Subcoracoid Impingement Syndrome with bursitis is an underrecognized cause of anterior shoulder pain. It usually presents with pain around the coracoid process and a positive Impingement test with shoulder adduction, forward flexion, and internal rotation. The pain is mediated by Impingement of soft tissues such as the subcoracoid bursa or subscapularis tendon between the coracoid process and humerus. Ultrasonography (US) can be useful in the evaluation of subcoracoid bursal Impingement Syndrome because of its high resolution capacity and the use of dynamic maneuvers. In this case series, we present 3 patients with subcoracoid Impingement Syndrome with bursitis diagnosed with in-office US. This case series illustrates the application of US in the evaluation of anterior shoulder pain with subcoracoid bursal Impingement Syndrome. Shoulder Impingement Syndrome is 1 of the most common causes of shoulder pain [1]. It is caused by entrapment of the soft tissues such as rotator cuff, biceps tendon, bursa and the capsule of the glenohumeral joint between the humeral head, labrum, and the coracoacromial arch including the coracoid process, coracoacromial ligament, and acromioclavicular joint complex [2]. Depending on the location of entrapment, it can be categorized into subacromial, postero-superior, and subcoracoid Impingement, with subacromial Impingement Syndrome being the most common. Subcoracoid Impingement is an underrecognized cause of anterior shoulder pain. It involves the rotator cuff tendons (most commonly the subscapularis tendon), the glenohumeral joint capsule, and the subcoracoid bursa specifically between the coracoid process and the humeral head. The subcoracoid bursa is located between the coracoid process, the conjoint tendon (of the biceps short head and coracobrachialis) and the subscapularis,

Emergency department diagnosis of supraspinatus tendon calcification and shoulder Impingement Syndrome using bedside ultrasonography
Critical Ultrasound Journal, 2013Co-Authors: David C Riley, Martha Kaufman, Theresa M Ward, Yesenia Acevedo, Rodney Guerra, Adenike FolorunshoAbstract:A 45-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with a 2-day history of severe left shoulder pain made worse with movement. Emergency department (ED) bedside point-of-care static and dynamic ultrasound examination of the supraspinatus tendon revealed supraspinatus tendon calcification with Impingement Syndrome, and the patient was urgently referred to orthopedics after ED pain control was achieved. Bedside shoulder and supraspinatus tendon evaluation with static and dynamic ultrasonography can assist in the rapid diagnosis of supraspinatus tendon calcification and supraspinatus tendon Impingement Syndrome in the emergency department.

comprehensive impairment based exercise and manual therapy intervention for patients with subacromial Impingement Syndrome a case series
Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 2010Co-Authors: Angela Tate, Philip W Mcclure, Ian A Young, Renata Salvatori, Lori A MichenerAbstract:Study Design Case series. Background Few studies have defined the dosage and specific techniques of manual therapy and exercise for rehabilitation for patients with subacromial Impingement Syndrome. This case series describes a standardized treatment program for subacromial Impingement Syndrome and the time course and outcomes over a 12-week period. Case Description Ten patients (age range, 19–70 years) with subacromial Impingement Syndrome defined by inclusion and exclusion criteria were treated with a standardized protocol for 10 visits over 6 to 8 weeks. The protocol included a 3-phase progressive strengthening program, manual stretching, thrust and nonthrust manipulation to the shoulder and spine, patient education, activity modification, and a daily home exercise program of stretching and strengthening. Patients completed a history and measures of impairments and functional disability at 2, 4, 6, and 12 weeks. Outcomes Treatment success was defined as both a 50% improvement on the Disabilities of the...

anatomical and biomechanical mechanisms of subacromial Impingement Syndrome
Clinical Biomechanics, 2003Co-Authors: Lori A Michener, Philip W Mcclure, Andrew R KardunaAbstract:Abstract Subacromial Impingement Syndrome is the most common disorder of the shoulder, resulting in functional loss and disability in the patients that it affects. This musculoskeletal disorder affects the structures of the subacromial space, which are the tendons of the rotator cuff and the subacromial bursa. Subacromial Impingement Syndrome appears to result from a variety of factors. Evidence exists to support the presence of the anatomical factors of inflammation of the tendons and bursa, degeneration of the tendons, weak or dysfunctional rotator cuff musculature, weak or dysfunctional scapular musculature, posterior glenohumeral capsule tightness, postural dysfunctions of the spinal column and scapula and bony or soft tissue abnormalities of the borders of the subacromial outlet. These entities may lead to or cause dysfunctional glenohumeral and scapulothoracic movement patterns. These various mechanisms, singularly or in combination may cause subacromial Impingement Syndrome.
