Brief Summary:
The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of a dual-task-based exercise program on clinical outcomes in individuals with rotator cuff-related shoulder pain. The study will evaluate the effects of a dual-task exercise approach, in which physical exercises are performed concurrently with cognitive tasks, on pain, functional status, pain catastrophizing and kinesiophobia. These results will be compared with those of a standard shoulder rehabilitation program. The main questions this study aims to answer are:
* Is there a difference in pain levels between individuals with rotator cuff-related shoulder pain who participate in a dual-task-based exercise program and those who participate in a standard exercise program?
* Is there a difference between these two exercise approaches in terms of shoulder function and psychosocial factors?
Participants will:
* Participate in either a dual-task-based shoulder exercise program or a standard shoulder exercise program twice per week for 6 weeks.
* Undergo clinical assessments at baseline, at week 6, and at week 12.
* Is there a difference in pain levels between individuals with rotator cuff-related shoulder pain who participate in a dual-task-based exercise program and those who participate in a standard exercise program?
* Is there a difference between these two exercise approaches in terms of shoulder function and psychosocial factors?
Participants will:
* Participate in either a dual-task-based shoulder exercise program or a standard shoulder exercise program twice per week for 6 weeks.
* Undergo clinical assessments at baseline, at week 6, and at week 12.
Detailed Description:
A total of 46 patients will be included in the study based on the results of a power analysis. Participants will be randomly allocated into two groups using a computer-based randomization program: the Dual-Task Technique-Based Exercise Group (Group 1) and the Standard Exercise Group (Group 2). Both groups will receive patient education and participate in a supervised exercise program. In the Dual-Task Technique-Based Exercise Group, exercise sessions will be performed concurrently with cognitive tasks. The Standard Exercise Group will undergo a standard shoulder exercise program without cognitive task integration. The intervention will be administered twice per week for a total of 12 sessions over a 6-week period. Clinical assessments will be conducted for both groups at baseline (before treatment), at the end of the intervention (week 6), and at week 12 as a follow-up assessment. The primary outcome measure will be pain intensity, assessed using the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS). Secondary outcome measures will include the Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionnaire (Q-DASH), the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Standardized Shoulder Assessment Form (ASES), the Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) and the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia-11 (TSK-11).
