  5. Subacromial joint. Subacromial space 9-10mm Force couple to counteract downward pull of deltoid Thompson et al (1996) Jarjavay (1867) Neer (1972), anatomical variations in build, strain and repetitive microtrauma. Degeneration of the rotator cuff, oedema, bleeding, fibrosis and calcification → ruptures, osteophyte formation, and spur formation. Anatomy Charlie Cotterill

  6. Aetiology • Primary/Secondary • Intrinsic/Extrinsic Bigliani Classification (1991) Charlie Cotterill

  7. Aetiology Aetiology of SIS is multifactoral (Lewis et al 2001). • Mechanical/Anatomical • Primary mechanical impingement (Neer 1972, 1983) • Acromial bone spurs (Neer 1972) • Os acromiale (Neer 1972, 1983) • Corocoacromial ligament (soslosky et al 1994) • Postereosuperior glenoid impingement (Jobe 1997, Riand et al 1998) • Rotator cuff • RC overuse (Jobe and Jobe 1983, Meister and Andrews 1993, Frost et al 1999) • Degenerative tendinopathy (Ozaki et al 1988) • Instability/hypermobility • Secondary tensile disease (Meister and Andrews 1993) • Secondary compressive impingement (Warner et al 1990) Charlie Cotterill

  8. Aetiology • Restrictive processes • Restricted glenhumeral capsule (Harryman et al 1990, Matsen and Arntz 1990) • Posture • Ayub 1991, Bowling et al 1986, Calliet 1991, Solem-Bertoft et al 1993) • Functional scapular instability • Kibler 1991, 1998, 2002, 2003, Warner et al 1992, Lukasiewicz 1999, Ludewig and Cook 2000, Wandsworth, Bullock Saxton 1997) • Lateral Kibler slide test Charlie Cotterill

Labrum tear Cervical/Thoracic spine RA Bursitis Polymyalgia Rheumatica Rotator cuff tear # Biceps tendon rupture/tendinopathy Calcific tendinitis Adhesive capsulitis AC arthritis Glenohumeral arthritis Septic arthritis Gout Lyme disease Long thoracic nerve injury Visceral: PE, pleuritis, pericarditis, angina, MI, cholecystitis, pancreatitis, adnexitis. Lupus erythematosus Spondylo-arthropathy AVN Cervical radiculopathy Tumor/Malignancy Thoracic outlet Brachial plexus neuropathy Trigger points Post CVA Glenohumeral instability Humeral subluxation Charlie Cotterill

  14. Evidence • Evidence suggests that the condition is not self-limiting. • Systematic review of manual and physical therapy treatment in SIS by Desmeules et al. revealed only 7 RCTs = Limited evidence to support the efficacy of physical therapy in SIS • Lack of uniformity in defining, evaluating, and treating SIS. • Supervised exercises appear to be preferable to arthroscopic surgery for patients with persistent shoulder impingement syndrome. Brox et al (1993) • A review of 8 RCTs evaluated the efficacy of corticosteroid injection in the rx of rotator cuff tendonitis (Koester et al). 2 of the 8 trials showed clinically relevant improvements in pain and range of motion in the injection groups as compared with placebo. • Two systematic reviews found ultrasound to be ineffective in the management of pain in the shoulder (Green and Heijden Charlie Cotterill
