ABSTRACT

The aim of this study was to evaluate chronic shoulder pain due to rotator cuff injury and the correlation between athletic shoulder outcome rating scale (ASORS), numerical pain rating scale (NPRS) and shoulder ROM. It was a correlational study using convenient sampling method with a sample size of 80 players chosen according to the inclusion criteria. Data was obtained through NPRS, ASORS and player's shoulder range of motion videos. The results included analysis on age, gender, dominance of hand, pain intensity on NPRS and ASORS. The mean±SD of age, gender, dominance of hand, pain intensity on NPRS, ASORS was 21.51±2.36, 1.66±0.476, 1.95± 0.219, 4.63±1.38, 77.2±0.739 respectively. Mean of all shoulder ROM was flexion – 172.43, extension – 57.43, abduction – 171.31, adduction – 171.43, medial rotation – 63.51 and lateral rotation – 88.12. The study showed the positive correlation in shoulder range of motion and not with the ASORS and NPRS.
