Effects of a Web Application for Rotator Cuff-Related Shoulder Pain
Protocol for an Open-Label Randomised Controlled Trial
Introduction: Rotator cuff-related shoulder pain (RCRSP) is a common cause of shoulder pain. Exercise is the main treatment, but long-term adherence can be challenging. This study evaluates the effects of adding video animations to a traditional exercise programme.
Methods and Analysis: A clinical trial will be conducted in Spain with adults diagnosed with RCRSP. Participants will be randomised into two groups, both receiving paper-based exercises, with the experimental group also provided with video animations. The primary outcome measure will be the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index, measured at baseline, 3 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months.
Ethics and Dissemination: The study has been approved by the ethics committee of Hospital Universitario Fundación Alcorcón in Madrid, Spain. All participants will sign an informed consent. The results will be published in a peer-reviewed scientific journal.
