Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Double

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Heavy Slow Resistance group
Heavy slow resistance exercise will be given along with traditional physical therapy program
Heavy slow resistance exercise will be given twice a week for 12 weeks along with traditional physical therapy program
Traditional physical therapy program only will be given twice a week for 12 weeks
Placebo Comparator: Control group
Traditional physical therapy program will be given to the control group
Traditional physical therapy program only will be given twice a week for 12 weeks

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Range of motion measurement for external rotation and abduction using clinometer application at week 12
Time Frame: week 12 from baseline measurement
The smart phone clinometer is a validated tool to measure range of motion
week 12 from baseline measurement

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Quick DASH(Quick Disabilities of the of Arm Shoulder and Hand)
Time Frame: week 12 from baseline measurement
Quick DASH is an 11 item questionnaire to measure physical function and symptoms in people presenting with one or more disabilities of the arm, shoulder, and hand. The higher the score from 0 to 100 scale the higher the disability.
week 12 from baseline measurement
12-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-12)
Time Frame: week 12 from baseline measurement

SF-12 is a 12 item ,self-reported outcome measure for assessing quality of life.

Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better physical and mental health functioning.

week 12 from baseline measurement
The Oxford Shoulder Score(OSS)
Time Frame: week 12 from baseline measurement
The Oxford Shoulder Score is validated tool for measuring pain and disability caused by shoulder pathology. It has 12 items with a score ranging from 0 to 48 with 48 being the best outcome.
week 12 from baseline measurement
