Investigation of the Effectiveness of Core Stabilization Training in Patients With Subacromial Impingement Syndrome
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Subacromial Impingement Syndrome (SSS) is one of the most common shoulder problems. The core region is considered a kinetic link that facilitates the transfer of torque and angular momentum between the upper and lower extremities during body movements. The decrease in core stabilization affects both trunk control and the quality of extremity movements depending on the kinetic chain in the body. The improvement in core stabilization balances the load transfer between the trunk and the extremities and reduces the asymmetry between the extremities. Core stabilization training should be included in rehabilitation programs as core stabilization is adversely affected in patients with CNS. For this reason, this study was planned to examine the effects of core stabilization training applied in addition to conventional treatment in patients with CNS on pain, range of motion, upper extremity function and core stability.

|---|---|
| Experimental: Core stabilization group Individuals included in this group will receive 20 minutes of core stabilization training in addition to 40 minutes of standard rehabilitation. Patients will be trained 5 days a week for first 3 weeks(standart rehabilitation + core stabilization training) then will be trained 3 days a week on 4-6 week (only core stabilization training). The next 6 weeks will be given a home exercise program including shoulder exercises and core stabilization training. |
Other: Core stabilization training
First, while focusing on the activation methods of deep cervical flexor, transversus abdominus and multifidus muscles in individuals; In the next stages, exercises will be performed that will preserve the contraction of the deep cervical flexor, transversus abdominus and multifidus muscles and activate the other muscles of the body.
Other: Standart Rehabilitation
This treatment includes shoulder exercises and conventional therapy (Infrared, ultrasound, TENS).

| Other: Control group Individuals included in this group will receive only 40 minutes of standard rehabilitation. Patients will be trained 5 days a week for first 3 weeks(only standart rehabilitation). The next 9 weeks will be given a home exercise program including shoulder exercises. |
Other: Standart Rehabilitation
This treatment includes shoulder exercises and conventional therapy (Infrared, ultrasound, TENS).
