Brief Summary: Various options are available for the treatment of rotator cuff syndrome including conservative and surgical Conservative treatment methods include activity modification nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs NSAIDs corticosteroid injections CSIs and physiotherapy Physiotherapy methods include various interventions such as manual therapy exercise and electrotherapy Although these treatments do not directly treat the specific pathology they help correct rotator cuff and scapular muscle weakness and dysfunction reduce the tightness of the posterior capsule and other soft tissues and relieve pain and dysfunction It focuses on correcting the postural abnormalities that contribute to the disease

In our study the investigators aimed to determine the effects of rehabilitation components in the conservative treatment of patients with rotator cuff syndrome and to determine the effects of strengthening exercises on the functional status of the patients
Detailed Description: Rotator cuff syndrome RCS also known as rotator cuff tendonitis is characterised by intense pain functional impairment loss of shoulder range of motion ROM nocturnal pain and limitations in activities of daily living It is a common problem in the ageing population and its patophysiology may be the result of tendon degeneration resulting from microtrauma repetitive activities overload or traumatic injury

Groups Participants were randomly divided into two treatment groups There are 10 patients in each group The patients in the control group received a standard treatment programme while the patients in the experimental group received strengthening exercises with theraband in addition to the standard treatment programme Treatment sessions for both groups lasted 50-55 minutes and were performed three days a week Details of the study groups are given below

Control Group

Patients in the control group received a standard treatment programme This programme included the following

Passive stretching exercises were performed 10 repetitions for each movement shoulder flexion abduction adduction internal rotation external rotation Codman exercises were performed 15 repetitions with 1kg dumbbell Shoulder isometric exercises were performed 15 repetitions for each movement ball press clockwise and anti-clockwise ball rotation finger slide on the wall Wand exercises were performed 15 repetitions shoulder abduction internal rotation external rotation Electrotherapy was applied for 20 minutes and ice therapy was applied for 20 minutes7-9 Experimental Group

Patients in the experimental group received strengthening exercises with theraband in addition to the standard treatment programme This programme included the following

Strengthening Exercises Low-row biceps strengthening shoulder horizontal abduction and shoulder horizontal adduction external rotation After the pain decreased strengthening exercises for subscapularis infraspinatus supraspinatus teres minor deltoid and scapulothoracic muscles were performed The colour of the Theraband was chosen between yellow red green blue and red to the extent tolerated by the patient
