Shoulder disorder (SD) affects over 50% of people, with varying recovery times. While some treatments show short-term benefits, long-term effectiveness and diagnostic methods require further research for better shoulder pain management.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Rheumatology
  • Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation

Background:

  • Shoulder disorder (SD) is a prevalent condition with significant impact on patient health.
  • Understanding its epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment is crucial for effective management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an up-to-date overview of shoulder disorder (SD).
  • To summarize evidence on diagnostic methods and treatment effectiveness for SD.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review of randomized controlled trials.
  • Analysis of epidemiological data on incidence and prevalence.
  • Evaluation of diagnostic classifications and imaging techniques.

Main Results:

  • SD has a high prevalence (51% 1-year period prevalence).
  • Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and corticosteroid injections show short-term effectiveness (≤6 weeks).
  • Evidence for physiotherapy effectiveness and prognostic validity of diagnostic classifications is limited.

    • Conclusions:

    • Further research is needed to clarify long-term treatment outcomes for SD.
    • Improved diagnostic models and validation of physiotherapy interventions are required.
    • Current diagnostic classifications show poor reproducibility.
