Study Summary

Shoulder pain is very common. People receive injections in their shoulder for their painful shoulder. However, investigators do not know which patient with shoulder pain responds best to an injection in the shoulder. Investigators plan to use a "Pull Test" where the researcher will pull on the arm and resist shoulder movement to investigate if it helps to determine which patients have better pain relief with the shoulder injection. The study will take place in Anchorage, Alaska. There will be two phases in the study. For each phase, the subjects will complete some questionnaires. Phase I "Reliability Testing" will test how consistent two licensed physical therapists are giving shoulder examination tests and the Pull Test. Phase II "Pull Test" will comprise shoulder examination findings, including the Pull Test, done before and after one shoulder injection performed as normal standard of care by a licensed physician. For Phase I of the study, up to 20 patients treated for shoulder pain will be recruited from Advanced Physical Therapy. For Phase II of the study, up to 100 patients with shoulder pain scheduled to have a shoulder injection will be asked by an investigator if they wish to participate in the study until a number of 30 subjects qualify for the study. Phase II of the study will include shoulder tests before and about 20 minutes after the injection and a 4- to 7-day, as well as a 6-week, phone follow-up. Statistics will be used to analyze the data.
