Rehabilitation for Non-Operative Shoulder Injuries
This study is looking at two ways to help people recover from shoulder pain and injuries that don't need surgery. One group will receive the "Standard of Care," which is regular physical therapy. The other group will try a new method called "CRISP" (Criteria-Based Approach for the Rehabilitation for Non-Operative Shoulder Injuries). CRISP uses a step-by-step approach to guide your physical therapy, including exercises you do at home and with a therapist. Researchers want to see if CRISP helps people feel better and recover more quickly than the standard care. You might be able to join if you are an active-duty Service member between 18 and 65 years old with shoulder pain or injury. The study aims to enroll 250 participants.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study comparing two different rehabilitation approaches. It plans to enroll 250 participants.
- What's involved
- You would undergo physical therapy, either the CRISP approach or standard care, including supervised sessions and a home exercise program. You would also complete assessments at initial, final, 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after starting the study.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Participants will be followed for 12 months after they are randomly assigned to a treatment group.
