Abstract:
Shoulder pain in elite swimmers is common and its cause is unknown. One hypothesis is that repetitive swimming leads to shoulder laxity, which in turn leads to impingement and shoulder pain. An observational cross-sectional study was designed to test this hypothesis. Eighty elite swimmers (13-25 years of age) completed questionnaires on their swimming training, pain and shoulder function. They were given a standardized clinical shoulder examination, and tested for inferior glenohumeral joint laxity using a noninvasive electronic laxometer designed for this study. Fifty-two swimmers also attend

Abstract:
The aims of this thesis were to evaluate the immediate and long-term effects of Mobilisation-with-movement (MWM) in isolation and in conjunction with taping and therapeutic exercise for people with musculoskeletal shoulder pain. In addition, the thesis aimed to assess possible indicators of poor response to MWM to the shoulder. Shoulder pain is the third most common musculoskeletal problem with patients often experiencing persistent pain and dysfunction. For the majority, conservative treatment is initially recommended.

Abstract:
Abstract The etiology of musculoskeletal disorders remains largely unclear, pain being the predominant complaint. The prevalence of neck pain (NP), shoulder pain (SP), and low back pain (LBP) increases drastically during adolescence. Potentially modifiable risk factors of NP, SP, and LBP should be identified at that age. First, this study evaluated the prevalence of NP, SP, LBP and peripheral pains (upper or lower extremities) and the prevalence of multiple pains. Second, the study determined the role of a set of potentially modifiable risk factors for adolescents’ NP, SP, and LBP (physical ac

This thesis investigated whether experimental pain, with a particular focus on experimental shoulder pain, validly replicated the clinical experience of pain. One systematic review and one experimental study were conducted as part of the research program.

A lack of reliable information regarding the muscle response to shoulder pain was identified as a potential cause of suboptimal management. Experimental pain was identified as the best option for determining the muscle response to pain due

Background: Shoulder pain is a common problem and a challenge for public healthcare service providers. Those suffering from it are often referred to an orthopaedic specialist in pursuit of a surgical solution, only to be confronted with long waiting lists and in many instances, the news that surgery is not recommended. As the population ages and demand for health services increases, the need for more efficient service provision will intensify. To address this challenge, traditional orthopaedic pathways are evolving. Today many orthopaedic patients are seen by physiotherapists instead of doctor

Prolonged computer work is associated with high rates of neck and shoulder pain symptoms, and as computers have become increasingly more common, it is becoming critical that we develop sustainable interventions targeting this issue.

Causal mechanisms may include a stereotypical recruitment of low threshold motor units (activating type I muscle fibers), characterized by a lack of temporal as well as sp

Abstract:
<b>Background</b> The shoulder is the third most common site of musculoskeletal symptoms with an estimated 20% of the population reporting symptoms at any given time. Rotator cuff tears are the most common shoulder disorder, and the major debilitation patients seek help for is pain. Full thickness rotator cuff tears have an estimated prevalence of between 7 and 27%, but studies have shown that not all of these are symptomatic. Many case series have been set in shoulder clinics and may have drawn false causality between rotator cuff tears and pain. This study uses a community population-based c

Abstract:
Background Shoulder pain and injury is common in both the general population and among athletes. Overhead athletes, such as handball players, are at an even higher risk of shoulder injury. There is currently no consensus regarding how or if these injuries can be prevented.  Purpose The aim of this review was to examine whether preventive training programs reduce acute and/or overuse injuries in overhead athletes. Another aim was to examine if training programs increase the strength of the rotator cuff in overhead athletes.  Method Searches were made in PubMed, Cinahl, and Sport Discus in March

Abstract:
Neck-shoulder pain (NSP) is a highly prevalent musculoskeletal disorder with unclear causes, and effective prevention and treatment require a further understanding of the underlying mechanisms. Aberrant autonomic nervous system (ANS) regulation is a hypothesized causal element in the development and maintenance of chronic muscle pain. The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate possible differences in ANS regulation between chronic NSP and healthy control (CON) groups using both laboratory assessment and ambulatory monitoring in daily life. Four papers are included in this thesis, based

Thesis (MSc)--University of Stellenbosch, 2011.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Background: There is a high prevalence of musculoskeletal problems, including neck and shoulder pain (NSP) among nurses worldwide. Tygerberg hospital (TBH) is the second largest hospital in South Africa with a large complement of nurses. The prevalence of NSP and risks associated therewith have not previously been determined at TBH. It is unknown how the nurses at TBH experience NSP in their workplace. Objective: This study questioned whether the 12 month prevalence of neck pain, shoulder pain and combined NSP is similar to w

Abstract:
<p>Repetitive and monotonous work is frequently associated with neck and shoulder pain and negative psychosocial factors inducing stress reactions. The present thesis concerns the relations between psychophysiological and subjective stress reactions, muscle activity measured by surface electromyography (SEMG) in the trapezius muscle, and neck and shoulder pain in women performing repetitive and monotonous work. In Study I cardiovascular and subjective stress reactions were investigated during computer work in a laboratory setting. The findings indicated that heart rate variability is a more se
