Abstract
Introduction: Calcifications in the tendon of the m.
supraspinatus cause pain and restriction of movement
in the shoulder and lead to restriction of activities of
daily living.
Aim: To determine the effect of functional band and
radial shock wave on m. supraspinatus on shoulder
pain, range of motion and function of the shoulder joint
and calcifications.
Materials and methods: The sample included 20 subjects
with calcifications in the tendon of m. supraspinatus.
Functional band and radial shock wave were applied to
the experimental group and radial shock wave only to
the control group. Measurements of the range of motion
in the shoulder joint, the pain and functional ability of
scholulder (SPADI), pain intensity by Visually Analog
Scale and the calcific size measurements by diagnostic
ultrasound were performed.
Results: The results indicate that there was no
statistically significant difference between the groups in
pain intensity, range of motion, shoulder joint function
and calcifications.
Conclusion: The results of this pilot study indicate that
the use of the functional band and the radial shock wave
do not affect the calcifications of m. supraspinatus
