Eligibility:

All Genders

18-30 years

Phase:

NA

Brief Summary

It was hypothesized that: There is no statistical significant effects of a scapular vupward rotation exercise (SURE) on scapular alignment in subjects with scapular downward rotation syndrome (SDRS)....

Detailed Description

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of scapular upward rotation exercises on strength duration curve and pressure pain threshold (PPT) in subjects with scapular downward rotation syndr...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • University population were screened for subjects with scapular downward rotation, those who met the following criteria was recruited in this study. The inclusion criteria for subject selection in this study was based on the literature (Caldwell et al., 2007; Ha et al., 2011) which included:
  • The scapula was downwardly rotated by visual appraisal.We examined the root of spine of scapulae (superior angle) and inferior angle of scapulae. If scapulae was downwardly rotated, inferior angle closer to spine than root of spine of scapulae (superior angle).
  • The clavicle appeared to be horizontal or the acromioclavicular joint was lower than the sternoclavicular joint by visual appraisal.
  • The vertebral borders of the scapula was less than 3 inches from the spine by tape measure.

Exclusion

  • Subject who has any of the following criteria was excluded from the study:
  • Subjects with cervical spinal fractures.
  • Neck-rotation ROM of \<20º.
  • Radiating pain to an upper extremity.
  • Scoliosis.
  • Leg length discrepancy.
  • A history of unresolved cancer.
  • Diabetes Miletus.
  • Polyneuropathy.
  • Myofascial Pain Syndrome.
  • Fibromyalgia.
