Comparison of the effects of neurocognitive therapeutic exercise(CTE) and conventional therapy on the reduction of shoulder pain in farm workers.
The aim of this randomized controlled pilot study was to evaluate the effectiveness of neurocognitive therapeutic exercise(CTE) and conventional exercise therapy in reducing work-related shoulder pain.
Twenty elderly patients with work-related shoulder pain were randomly assigned to one group: neurocognitive group or conventional group. Both sessions lasted 30 min, three times a week for 8 weeks, and the assessments were blinded.
Outcome measures included the visual analog scale (VAS) score, structured questionnaire, and rapid entire body assessment (REBA). Active range of motion (AROM) of shoulder abduction and parametric statistical tests were performed using paired and independent t-tests.
Both groups experienced improvements in all outcomes measures relative to the baseline values. Changes in VAS score (p=.151) showed no significant differences between the two groups. The neurocognitive therapeutic exercise could be a safe and more useful strategy for improving REBA (p=.001) and AROM (p=.001).
Neurocognitive rehabilitation is effective in reducing and improving function in farm workers with shoulder pain.
