Shoulder Muscle Strength

The overall risk of contracting various diseases, including breast cancer, increases with age. An on-going process of population ageing challenges modern physiotherapy with the need to have functional capacity in older people appreciably enhanced. The issue of anthropometric assessment of the range of motion and shoulder muscle strength is presently much underrated in the physical rehabilitation management of women patients after radical one-sided mastectomy. The study aimed to assess the functional mobility of a shoulder expressed as a range of motion, in conjunction with the assessment of shoulder muscle strength, in women patients over 60 years of age after radical one-sided mastectomy. The study comprised 24 patients (mean age 65 years) recruited from the Department of Rehabilitation, Holy Cross Cancer Centre, Kielce. All patients had undergone modifi ed radical mastectomy using the Madden technique, and an adjuvant therapy. The shoulder range of motion, i.e. flexion, abduction, internal and external rotation, was evaluated by a goniometer. Elevation, protraction and retraction movements were evaluated using an anthropometric device. A dynamometer was applied to assess the strength of select muscle groups within the shoulder during elevation, protraction and retraction motions. Statistical analysis was made with the aid of STATISTICA 12.0 software, having adopted a 0.05 alpha level as statistically signifi cant. The movements of fl exion, abduction and external rotation of the upper extremity were signifi cantly reduced on the mastectomy side. The range of motion and muscle strength during shoulder elevation, protraction and retraction were significantly diminished on the operated side (12% - 14%), compared to the non-operated one. 1. Functional mobility of the shoulder was signifi cantly reduced on the mastectomy side. 2. Results of the present study highlight the need to extend the scope of rehabilitation regimens offered to older women after radical one-sided mastectomy.

Statistical Results

Modified radical mastectomy leads to dissection of muscles and soft tissue structures and chemotherapy causes weakness of the muscles involved resulting in functional limitations that affects the activities of daily life. Graded resistance exercise is effective in improving muscle strength, functional capacity and activities of daily life. To find the effect of graded thera-band exercises on shoulder muscle strength and activities of daily life in modified radical mastectomy patients. A total of 40 females who underwent mastectomy procedure along with chemotherapy or radiotherapy for breast carcinoma were included based on inclusion criteria. Group A received conventional strengthening program with weights and group B received thera-band exercises for five days per week for eight weeks and pre and post assessment was done with Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder and Hand(DASH) Questionnaire and Manual Muscle Testing(MMT). Statistical results within group values for Conventional strengthening program for DASH (p = <0.0001) and mean difference(MD) was 2.58, MMT for Shoulder flexion (p=0.867),MD= -0.15 and extension(p=0.046),MD= -2, abduction (p=0.775),MD= -0.3, internal rotation (p=0.701),MD= -0.35 and external rotation (p=0.039),MD= -1.65. The within group statistical results for experimental group for DASH (p=<0.0001),MD=4.98 , MMT for Shoulder flexion (p=0.012),MD= -2.05, extension (p=0.0007),MD= -2.1 and external rotation(p=0.036),MD= -2.2, abduction (p=0.055),MD= -1.65 and internal rotation (p=0.051),MD= -1.4 . The results conclude that strengthening with thera-band showed more better effect compared to conventional strengthening program. Strengthening exercise program with thera-band showed significant improvement in the outcome variables on strength and activities of daily life involving shoulder, arm and hand.
