Brief Summary:
The infraspinatus muscle is one of the four muscles that form the rotator cuff The dry needling technique involves inserting a sterile needle to stimulate a myofascial trigger point with the aim of reducing pain and increasing range of motion and quality of life This technique can be performed using ultrasound guidance which allows us to visualize the needle at all times but it can also be done using anatomical landmarks This study includes a self-directed exercise plan for rotator cuff tendinopathy Variables such as strength shoulder functionality level grip strength and active range of motion will be measured As part of the intervention two dry needling sessions will be performed 14 days apart along with two different exercise programs Three measurements will be taken and the intervention will last for 6 weeks The sample will be divided into four equal groups Group 1 ultrasound-guided real dry needling Group 2 ultrasound-guided placebo dry needling Group 3 non-ultrasound-guided real dry needling and Group 4 non-ultrasound-guided placebo dry needling
Detailed Description:
Pathologies affecting the rotator cuff are the most common among shoulder patho-logies The infraspinatus muscle is one of the four muscles that make up the rotator cuff Dry needling is a technique used to reduce pain and increase the range of motion The ul-trasound-guided technique involves using an ultrasound device to visualize the needle and guide it to the target tissue Physical exercise helps improve tendon recovery Objective To evaluate the effect of real dry needling and placebo dry needling whether ultrasound-guided or not on pain VAS shoulder functionality SPADI questionnaire grip strength Jamar dynamometer and ac-tive range of motion electronic goniometer A total of 76 subjects diagnosed by a physician with rotator cuff tendinopathy based on imaging aged between 18 and 60 years and meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria were divided into 4 groups Group 1 real ultrasound-guided dry needling on the infraspinatus muscle exercise Group 2 placebo ultrasound-guided dry needling on the infraspinatus muscle exercise Group 3 real non-ultrasound-guided dry needling on the infraspinatus muscle exercise and Group 4 placebo non-ultrasound-guided dry needling on the infraspinatus muscle exercise The dry needling technique will be applied twice at the beginning and at 14 days The intervention duration is 6 weeks
