The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of Electromyographic Biofeedback with proprioception exercises on pain, range of motion, muscle strength, proprioception and functionality in patients with subacromial impingement syndrome.
This study is planned as a prospective, randomized clinical study. Patients with subacromial impingement syndrome who volunteered to participate in the study, met the inclusion criteria, and signed the consent form were randomly assigned to the proprioception exercise group and the proprioception exercise with electromyographic biofeedback group. Demographic and clinical data of the patients were recorded. Shoulder function with Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand scale, pain with VAS, painless active shoulder flexion, abduction, and external-internal rotation with goniometer, muscle strength with Manual Muscle Tester, proprioception (55°-90°- 125° angles of flexion and abduction, and angular deviations) with the Laser-pointer assisted angle reproduction test were evaluated, and patient satisfaction was evaluated with The Global Rating of Change Scale. After the initial evaluations were completed, only proprioception exercises and proprioception exercises with EMG-BF were applied 2 days a week for 8 weeks. Additionally, both groups were given Want exercises.

| Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand scale | The Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand scale was used to measure shoulder function. The Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand scale consists of 30 items. The total score that can be obtained from items scored between 1-5 varies between 0-100. An increase in the score indicates a decrease in function. | 8 weeks |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Visual analogue scale | The severity of pain was measured Visual analogue scale. ccording to this scale, patients rated their pain between 0 and 10. As the score increases, the pain increases. | 8 weeks |
| Joint range of motion |

Active shoulder flexion, abduction, and external-internal rotation range of motion was measured with goniometer.
| 8 weeks |
| Muscle strength | Shoulder flexion, abduction, and external-internal rotator muscle strength was measured with manual muscle tester. | 8 weeks |
| Proprioception | To evaluate joint position sense, laser pointer-assisted angle reproduction test was applied for measurements at 55°-90°-125° flexion and abduction angles. | 8 weeks |
| Patient satisfaction | The amount of improvement or deterioration in patients was assessed with the "Global Rating Change Scale".This scale is scored according to a 7-point Likert type (-3: much worse, -2: worse, -1: slightly worse, 0: the same, 1: slightly better, 2: quite better, 3: much better). | 8 weeks |
