Unravelling interacting barriers and facilitators to adherence and delivery of exercise-based care in the treatment of Subacromial Pain Syndrome - an exploratory qualitative study.

Purpose: Subacromial Pain Syndrome (SAPS) is a common persistent pain condition. Exercise-based care is first-line recommendation, but an insufficient exercise dose hampers effectiveness. This study explores individual and contextual barriers and facilitators for delivery of and adherence to exercise-based care in people with SAPS.

Self-management including exercise, education and activity modification compared to usual care for adolescents with Osgood-Schlatter (the SOGOOD trial): protocol of a randomized controlled superiority trial.

Background: Osgood-Schlatter is the most frequent growth-related injury affecting about 10% of physically active adolescents. It can cause long-term pain and limitations in sports and physical activity, with potential sequela well into adulthood. The management of Osgood-Schlatter is very heterogeneous.

mHealth intervention including text messaging and behaviour change techniques to support maintenance of physical activity after cardiac rehabilitation: A single-arm feasibility study.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility of a mobile health-supported intervention in patients with cardiovascular diseases after completion of a cardiac rehabilitation programme.

Methods: The feasibility study was performed in two hospitals and one municipality in Region Zealand, Denmark. Eligible participants were ≥18 years old, participated in a supervised cardiac rehabilitation programme, had access to a mobile phone, and could walk 3 m independently.

Digital mapping of shoulder pain in patients with shoulder disorders: a reliability study.

Introduction: Digital body mapping can be used to document and quantify the area and location (distribution) of pain and discomfort and support assessment, monitoring, and treatment in clinical populations. This study determines the test-retest reliability of drawings detailing pain and pins and needles using digital body charts and their relationship to pain intensity and patient-reported shoulder function.

Methods: Sixty-two participants with shoulder disorder completed pain and pins and needles drawings with test-retest interval of 30 minutes.

Using the app "Injurymap" to provide exercise rehabilitation for people with acute lateral ankle sprains seen at the Hospital Emergency Department-A mixed-method pilot study.

Background: Acute lateral ankle sprains (LAS) account for 4-5% of all Emergency Department (ED) visits. Few patients receive the recommended care of exercise rehabilitation. A simple solution is an exercise app for mobile devices, which can deliver tailored and real-time adaptive exercise programs.

Level of pain catastrophising determines if patients with long-standing subacromial impingement benefit from more resistance exercise: predefined secondary analyses from a pragmatic randomised controlled trial (the SExSI Trial).

Objective: The primary aim was to investigate the effectiveness of adding more resistance exercise to usual care on pain mechanisms (including temporal summation, conditioned pain modulation (CPM) and local pain sensitivity) and pain catastrophising in people with subacromial impingement at 16 weeks follow-up. Second, to investigate the modifying effect of pain mechanisms and pain catastrophising on the interventions' effectiveness in improving shoulder strength and disability METHODS: 200 consecutive patients were randomly allocated to usual exercise-based care or the same plus additional elastic band exercise to increase total exercise dose. Completed add-on exercise dose was captured using an elastic band sensor.

Terminology and diagnostic criteria used in studies investigating patients with subacromial pain syndrome from 1972 to 2019: a scoping review.

Introduction: There is no recognised terminology, nor diagnostic criteria, for patients with subacromial pain syndrome (SAPS). This is likely to cause heterogeneity across patient populations. This could be a driver of misconceptions and misinterpretations of scientific results.

Assessing shoulder disability in orthopaedic specialist care: Introducing the Copenhagen Shoulder Abduction Rating (C-SAR).

Background: Differences in shoulder-disability among common shoulder-disorders in orthopaedic specialist care is unknown. Furthermore, rating of shoulder-disability using patient-reported outcomes is time-consuming, and a faster approach is needed.

Objectives: First, compare shoulder-disability among common shoulder-disorders.

Maintenance of physical activity after cardiac rehabilitation (FAIR): study protocol for a feasibility trial.

Introduction: To enhance health and prevent secondary consequences for patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD), maintenance of an active lifestyle following participation in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is important. However, levels of physical activity often decrease after completion of a structured CR programme. Models that support long-term behaviour change with a sustained level of physical activity are imperative.

Validation of the Copenhagen Hip and Groin Outcome Score (HAGOS) using modern test theory across different cultures and languages: a cross-sectional study of 452 male athletes with groin pain.

Bkground: No studies have tested the validity of the Copenhagen Hip and Groin Outcome Score (HAGOS) using modern test theory, across different cultures and languages.

Objective: To validate the Danish, English and Norwegian versions of HAGOS and its six subscales (Symptoms (S, Item 1-7), Pain (P, Item 1-10), activities of daily living (Item 1-5), Sport and recreation (Sport/rec, Item 1-8), Participation in physical activity (item 1-2) and quality of life (item 1-5)) by evaluating differential item functioning (DIF) and measurement invariance across the three language versions in male multidirectional team athletes with groin pain. Second, to modify subscales depending on goodness-of-fit to the item response theory models and calculate conversion tables if language DIF was observed.

Past-season, pre-season and in-season risk assessment of groin problems in male football players: a prospective full-season study.

Objective: We assessed past-season, pre-season and in-season risk factors to investigate their association with an in-season groin problem in male amateur football players.

Methods: Past-season groin-pain information and pre-season short-lever and long-lever adductor squeeze strength were obtained at baseline, together with anthropometrics (weight, lower limb lever length) and player age. In-season hip-related and groin-related sporting function was monitored every 4 weeks using the Sports and Recreation (Sport) subscale from the Hip And Groin Outcome Score questionnaire (HAGOS (Sport)).

Less than half of patients in secondary care adheres to clinical guidelines for subacromial pain syndrome and have acceptable symptoms after treatment: A Danish nationwide cohort study of 3306 patients.

Background: Evidence-based guidelines recommend exercise-therapy as first line treatment for subacromial pain syndrome, but no previous study has mapped the content of care for subacromial pain syndrome and knowledge about adherence to clinical guidelines are lacking. We aim to describe the content and outcome of current care and investigate the relationship between content and outcome of care.

Methods: We invited all patients diagnosed with subacromial pain syndrome at any Danish hospital to participate in this nationwide retrospective population-based cohort-study.

Does the Spraino low-friction shoe patch prevent lateral ankle sprain injury in indoor sports? A pilot randomised controlled trial with 510 participants with previous ankle injuries.

Background: Lateral ankle sprains are common in indoor sports. High shoe-surface friction is considered a risk factor for non-contact lateral ankle sprains. Spraino is a novel low-friction patch that can be attached to the outside of sports shoes to minimise friction at the lateral edge, which could mitigate the risk of such injury.

ECCENTRIC HAMSTRING STRENGTH IS ASSOCIATED WITH AGE AND DURATION OF PREVIOUS SEASON HAMSTRING INJURY IN MALE SOCCER PLAYERS.

Background: Eccentric hamstring strength seems important in reducing the odds of future hamstring injuries. While age and previous injury are well-known risk factors for future hamstring injuries, the association of age and previous hamstring injury with eccentric hamstring strength in the following season is unknown.

Purpose: To investigate the association of age and previous hamstring injury with preseason eccentric hamstring strength in soccer players, and to investigate the association between previous hamstring injury duration and preseason eccentric hamstring strength.

[Subacromial impingement syndrome].

Subacromial impingement syndrome is one of the most common causes of shoulder pain and is associated with substantial shoulder impairments. The initial treatment should be non-operative in form of rotator cuff and scapula strengthening exercises for at least three months. Not all patients respond satisfactorily to non-operative treatment, but only patients with persistent symptoms after sufficiently tried non-operative treatment, should be referred to an orthopaedic specialist.

Rasch validation of the Danish version of the shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI) in patients with rotator cuff-related disorders.

Purpose: The psychometric properties of the shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI) have been extensively evaluated using classical test theory, but very few studies have applied Rasch analysis. The purpose of this study was to validate the Danish version using Rasch analysis.

Methods: Responses to the SPADI from 229 patients (48% female, mean age 54.

Effects of a lighter, smaller football on acute match injuries in adolescent female football: a pilot cluster-randomized controlled trial.

Background: The high injury incidence during match-play in female adolescent football is a major concern. In football, males and females play matches with the same football size. No studies have investigated the effect of football size on injury incidence in female adolescent football.
