| Scientific title | Shoulder impairment and disability: a randomised controlled trial towards evidence-based physiotherapy |
| Study objectives | Study of physiotherapy for shoulder disorders. The proposed study aims to identify effective methods for the treatment of shoulder disorders and to explore some of the underlying assumptions about its causes and outcome after treatment. There is little valid research into the causes and treatment of shoulder disorders which account for around 1.2% of all patients seen in a general practitioner's clinic. |
