Synopsis

This project involves 200 participants and will answer important questions about the efficacy of a physiotherapy program for chronic rotator cuff pathology and whether benefits can be maintained. The results of this project can be easily and immediately translated into clinical practice as recommendations can be made about the usefulness of physiotherapy for this patient population. The results will be beneficial to the physiotherapy profession and the medical profession who must justify patient referral to physiotherapy and to funding and compensable bodies.
