Enhancing adherence and outcomes in rotator cuff-related shoulder pain: A randomized trial of individualized exercise sequencing

Key Points

• To investigate the impact of individualized exercise sequencing on adherence and outcomes in rotator cuff-related shoulder pain.
• Conducted a randomized trial involving individualized exercise sequencing for shoulder pain
• Measured adherence rates and functional improvement using K-DASH and range of motion metrics
• Applied linear mixed-effects models to analyze outcomes
• Individualized exercise sequencing improved adherence and outcomes compared to random sequencing
• Observed a steeper rate of functional improvement in the individualized group
• Treatment effect correlated with adherence levels, emphasizing the importance of compliance
