pubmed:abstractText |
The authors review current treatment modalities and present a study comparing supervised exercises and arthroscopic surgery in patients with rotator cuff disease. Exercises supervised by a physiotherapist emphasize relearning of normal patterns of movement and local endurance training to improve tendon and muscle tissue, and are supplemented by ergonomic advice. The clinician should try to elucidate whether the patient is supposed to benefit solely from information and self-treatment. For several of the currently used treatment modalities, such as ultrasound, soft laser, heat and massage, no effect has been documented. Surgery should be reserved for persons who do not benefit from supervised exercises. Careful rehabilitation is necessary for patients who report having a physically demanding job.
