EVALUATION THE EFFECT OF PERMANENT PACEMAKER IMPLANTATION ON SHOULDER FUNTION AND SOME RELATED FACTORS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Purpose: Evaluation the effect of permanent pacemaker implantation on shoulder funtion and some related factors. Method: Prospective descriptive study. Research results: 5 weeks after pacemaker implantation: shoulder pain 29.4% mild pain, 33.3% moderate pain, 11.8% severe pain. Reduction of shouder motion: >00 flexion angle 72,5% and abduction angle 74,5%; > 300 flexion and abduction angle 37,3%. 100% of patients in the non-exercise group still had shoulder pain: 63% moderate pain and 22.2% severe pain and excercise group 45.8% mild shouder pain, 54.2% no shoulder pain. Range of motion of flexion angle and abduction angle improved significantly in the exercise group. Conclusion: A large proportion of patients have shoulder pain and limited shoulder mobility after 5 weeks pacemarker implantation. Exercises significantly improve shoulder pain and shoulder mobility.
