Not yet recruiting
Clinical Trial NCT04118439 (OPTIMIST) is an interventional study for Shoulder Pain and is currently not yet recruiting. Enrollment is planned to begin on June 1, 2025 and continue until the study accrues 100 participants. Led by Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, this study is expected to complete by June 1, 2027. The latest data from ClinicalTrials.gov was last updated on March 20, 2025.
Brief Summary
Objective: to evaluate the effectiveness of an action observation program (OA) and motor imagery (MI) -integrated into routine physiotherapy practice- to reduce disability associated with chronic shoulder pain in primary care, after 8 weeks of intervention and with follow-ups at 3 and 6 months with blind evaluation of the response variable. Design: randomized controlled clinical trial. Population: Patients with chron...Show More
Detailed Description
The aim of this project is to investigate a new conservative therapeutic approach for patients with chronic shoulder pain, a highly prevalent condition in primary care, and with a significant percentage of patients experiencing persistent pain. The proposed intervention combines Action Observation (AO) and Motor Imagery (MI) techniques with the usual based on exercises, with the aim of enhancing its effects by reduci...Show More

Arms / Interventions
Participant Group/ArmIntervention/Treatment
ExperimentalMotor Imaginery
Patients allocated in this arm will recieve a training on the first day after recruitment on a motor imaginery task and will be asked to do the task every day during 30 days until they start the usual care. Then after the physical therapy treatment with a pragmatic perspective will be meassured just inthe last session, after 1 month an.d after 3 moths of the treatment for the follow up
Motor Imaginery and Action Observation
A set of tasks done with the shoulder, first with an Action Observation perspective and then asked to perform this tasks with motor imaginery
No InterventionControl Group
Patients allocated in this arm will be meassured at the start, again after 30 days and at the end of the physical therapy usual care with a pragmatic perspective. Then will be meassured again after 1 and 3 months.
