Scapular Dyskinesis With Impingement Syndrome

Diagnosis and Treatment of Scapular Dyskinesis Combined With Impingement Syndrome of Shoulder

The goal of this study is to diagnose scapular dyskinesis-which can appear as a cause or result of various shoulder disorders-through screening tests in patients with shoulder impingement syndrome, the most common shoulder condition. By identifying scapular dyskinesis, the study aims to maximize treatment outcomes through appropriate rehabilitative exercise therapy.
