    • Background Subacromial pain is a common cause of shoulder dysfunction that negatively affects quality of life. Currently, most outcome measures for shoulder pain are applied to a heterogeneous group of patients. Of these measures, the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) is the most widely recognized test with which to assess patients with subacromial pain. The primary aim of this study was to assess the content validity of DASH for patients with subacromial pain, with a secondary aim to test responsiveness to a modified set of DASH items tailored to these patients. Methods There were 129 patients who reported activities in the Patient-Specific Functional Scale (PSFS). To assess validity, 5 independent physiotherapists matched PSFS activities to the most appropriate DASH item. DASH items identified as being of greatest importance to patients were those corresponding to the highest number of PSFS-matched activities. Calculations were made for responsiveness and internal consistency. Results Physiotherapists matched DASH items to 271 PSFS activities, reaching agreement for almost 80%. Seven DASH items (DASH 7) were identified as being particularly important. Effect size data (Cohen's d) were 0.93 for DASH 7, 0.92 for DASH 30, and 0.85 for QuickDASH; the corresponding Cronbach's α values (for DASH 7, DASH 30, and QuickDASH) were 0.84, 0.94, and 0.86, respectively. Conclusions DASH 7 is a short, patient-centered, and activity-related scale that can measure shoulder function in patients with subacromial pain using a quarter of the original DASH items. DASH 7 demonstrated responsiveness, with a satisfactory level of internal consistency.

  • Heterogeneity among patients with subacromial pain – variabilities within clinical presentation and its impact on daily life
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Physiotherapy. - : ELSEVIER SCI LTD. - 0031-9406 .- 1873-1465. ; 112, s. 113-120

    • Objective: The primary aim was to describe the variability within clinical presentation of patients with subacromial pain in primary care, secondly to investigate associations between clinical presentation and self-reported pain intensity, shoulder function, level of anxiety and depression, and health-related quality of life. Design and setting A cross-sectional study based on data from two clinical studies in primary care, one randomized controlled trial and one implementation study. Three components: active range of motion (AROM), rotator cuff function and scapular kinematics were analyzed to describe variability within clinical presentation and patient-reported measurements were used to investigate the impact on daily life. Participants Patients aged 30-67 years, describing pain for more than two weeks, and positive signs for a minimum of three out of the following five clinical tests: impingement sign according to Neer, impingement test according to Hawkins-Kennedy, Pattes maneuver, Jobe’s test, and painful arc. Results Among the 164 patients included, 24% displayed dysfunction in one, 50% two and 24% in all three components. Limited AROM was seen in 46%, rotator cuff dysfunction in 91% and scapular dyskinesia in 57% of the patients. Conclusions These results reveal a heterogeneity among primary care patients with subacromial pain confirming a large variability regarding the components AROM, rotator cuff function and scapular kinematics. All three components appear unique (not significantly correlated) where a rotator cuff dysfunction is very frequent while limited AROM and scapular dyskinesia are more inconsistent. There are significant, but rather weak, associations between clinical presentation and impact on daily life.

  • Patients with subacromial pain in primary care : Assessment and efficacy of physiotherapy-guided exercise treatment
  • 2021
  • Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Background: Shoulder pain is a common musculoskeletal disorder and 40-74% of the patients attending primary healthcare with a shoulder disorder are diagnosed with subacromial pain. Subacromial pain is characterized by restricted and painful movement of the arm that leads to difficulties in performing arm-related activities and often affects the quality of life profoundly, with respect to everyday function, work capacity, sleep quality and mental health. It is crucial that the measurements used to evaluate shoulder function and treatment response have acceptable psychometric properties and also that they are patients-specific and time-efficient to administer. For patients with subacromial pain, exercises are recommended as first-line treatment but consensus about which exercises and dosage to recommend has not been reached. The lack of evidence for one specific exercise model may be partly due to heterogeneity among this group of patients. The overall aim of this thesis were to evaluate the efficacy of a previously tested exercise strategy for patients with subacromial pain in a primary care setting, to describe the heterogeneity with possible subcategories among patients with subacromial pain, and finally to validate and adjust the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) questionnaire for more diagnosis-specific clinical assessment. Methods: The four papers in this thesis are based on two clinical studies, one randomized controlled trial (RCT) and one clinical cohort. The participants in both studies were patients with subacromial pain attending physiotherapist (PT) in a primary care setting. Two of the papers are based on psychometric analyses, with evaluation of construct validity and responsiveness for the DASH when used to evaluate shoulder function in patients with subacromial pain, and also calculation of minimal important change (MIC) for a diagnosis-specific short version of DASH (DASH 7). A third paper describe clinical presentation in patients with subacromial pain, based on the components active range of motion (AROM), rotator cuff function and scapular kinematics and the fourth paper evaluated the efficacy of a 3-month specific exercise strategy in comparison to an active control strategy. Results: Seven items from the original DASH were identified as being the most important in evaluating patients with subacromial pain (resulting in the DASH 7 questionnaire). The DASH 7 shows good responsiveness, can discriminate between patients who perceive themselves as improved and those who do not, and maintain a high level of internal consistency for the assessment of shoulder function in patients with subacromial pain, using only a quarter of the items of the original DASH. Based on clinical presentation, patients with subacromial pain in the primary care setting comprise a heterogeneous group. Rotator cuff dysfunction, defined as pain during resisted isometric muscle-testing, is very frequently present while limitation in active range of motion and scapular dyskinesia are less common. After three months of exercise, both groups in the RCT had significantly improved with no between group difference as measured with the primary CM-score. However, as measured with the DASH and the DASH 7, the patients in the specific exercise group was significantly more improved compared to those in the active control group. Conclusions: The DASH 7 questionnaire is a short patient-reported outcome measurement (PROM) with good responsiveness, specific for patients with subacromial pain. Heterogeneity was confirmed with identified variability in AROM, rotator cuff function and scapular kinematics in clinical presentation which confirms that these components are important in the clinical examination of patients with subacromial pain. Shoulder function evaluated with the CM score did not improve to a significantly different degree between the two groups studied. The specific exercises might not be necessary for all patients in the primary care setting to achieve a clinically relevant improvement. However, the specific exercise strategy was significantly better when improvement was assessed by DASH and DASH 7, and this leads us to recommend this strategy, with its progressive loading of the rotator cuff muscles and scapula stabilizers, as first choice, provided that it is tolerated by the patient.

  • The minimal important change for the seven-item disability of the arm, shoulder, and hand (DASH 7) questionnaire - Assessing shoulder function in patients with subacromial pain.
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: JSES international. - Philadelphia, PA, United States : Elsevier. - 2666-6383. ; 5:3, s. 474-479
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: The DASH 7 is a recently published activity-related 7-item short form of the disability of the arm, shoulder, and hand (DASH) questionnaire developed to assess shoulder function in patients with subacromial pain. Before implementation in both intervention studies and in clinical practice, it is essential to evaluate its responsiveness. The objective of this study was to determine the minimal important change (MIC) in the DASH 7 questionnaire for patients with subacromial pain after a 3 months exercise intervention in a primary care context.Methods: In this psychometric study the anchor-based MIC-distribution method was used to establish the MIC. The Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) was used as external criterion. Data from a clinical implementation study, aimed to implement a specific exercise strategy for patients with subacromial pain among physiotherapists in primary care, were used. Data from 70 patients were included in the analyses.Results: The correlation coefficient between Patient Global Impression of Change and the DASH 7 score change was 0.67 and the area under the curve was 0.94 (95% confidence interval: 0.88-1.0). The MICROC for improvement was detected at a mean change in 6.5 points with the sensitivity at 0.98 (98%) and the specificity at 0.78 (78%), and the MIC95% limit for improvement was detected at a mean change of 25.7 points. There were 77% of the patients who reached at least this MICROC and 51% who reached at least the MIC95% limit after 3 months of exercise intervention.Conclusion: The DASH 7 is responsive to change over time and can discriminate between patients considered to be improved and patients considered not improved. These MIC values for patients with subacromial pain in the primary care setting can be used in clinical practice and in intervention studies as an indication on the patients clinically important level of score change for improvement.
