Abstract

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to ascertain the effects of scapular stabilization exercise before rotator cuff surgery on pain and range of motion of middle-aged women.
Method : 20 subjects who agreed on this experiment and were diagnosed with rotator cuff rupture participated in this study. Experimental groups were treated while 40 minutes a day, 5 times per week, for 2 weeks before surgery. The effects of scapular stabilization exercise were evaluated on VAS and range of motion. Collected data were analyzed with SPSS for windows ver. 20.0 program. One-way repeated ANOVA was used to examine a significance of each variable by time. Two-way repeated ANOVA was applied to examine a significance of the experimental group against the control group. In all statistical tests, the significance level was set by α =.05.
Result : The results of this study are as follows: 1) In both control and experimental groups, VASs were decreased significantly according to intervention period. There was no significant difference between VASs of two groups. 2) In both control and experimental groups, ROMs of shoulder, flexion, abduction and external rotation were increased significantly according to intervention period. In these three flexibility measurement variables, there were significant differences between ROMs of two groups.
Conclusion : In view of all the results in this study, scapular stabilization exercise on before rotator cuff surgery proved to be effective in improving their pain, range of motion after surgery. It will be sufficient data to perform with their own exercise program.
