About this trial

The goal of the study is to determine the effect of radial shock wave Phonophoresis on patients with impingement syndromes. to answer the following questions:

does shock wave Phonophoresis have and effect on pain? does shock wave Phonophoresis have and effect on shoulder function? does shock wave Phonophoresis have and effect on subacromial space? patients will be randomized to two groups: Group (A): patients will receive shock wave Phonophoresis plus conventional physical therapy.

Group (B): Patients will receive shock wave plus conventional Physical therapy.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients age range between 25-40 years ago.

Shoulder pain between 60- 120° with shoulder elevation (positive painful arch test).

Grade 2 impingement syndrome according to neer classification.

Disqualifiers

Shoulder affected bilaterally

Receiving anesthetic or corticosteroid injections within 4 weeks of study enrollment

Surgery or previous fractures of the ipsilateral humeral head of the affected shoulder

Osteoarthritis in the acromioclavicular or glenohumeral joints

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • sodium diclofenac radial shock wave phonophoresis plus conventional physical therapy

    Device

    patients will receive radial shock wave Phonophoresis by ibuprofen in the form of 2000 shocks, 2.4 bars, 10 MHz frequency plus (strengthening and stretching exercises for subraspinatus muscle).

  • radial shock wave therapy plus conventional physical therapy

    Device

    patients will receive radial shock wave therapy ( 2000 shocks, 2.4 bars, 10 MHz), plus conventional physical therapy (strengthening and stretching exercises for subraspinatus muscle).
