The effects of Lycra sleeves on acromion-greater tuberosity distance, muscle activity and scapula position in people with post-stroke hemiplegia (2017)
Journal Article

Glenohumeral subluxation (GHS) is reported in up to 81% of patients with stroke. Our previous studies found that a Lycra sleeve can reduce acromion-greater tuberosity distance (used for assessment of GHS) in people with chronic stroke (n=5). In a rec...

Assessment approaches for hemiplegic shoulder pain – A scoping review (2017)
Journal Article

Abstract Introduction Hemiplegic Shoulder Pain (HSP) is reported between 16% and 84% in people with stroke. A recent survey of therapists in the UK reported that clinicians are using a wide range of assessment approaches irrespective of the underlyi...

Use of portable diagnostic ultrasound to inform treatment choices for hemiplegic shoulder pain in people with Chronic Stroke: A case series (2017)
Journal Article

Abstract Introduction Hemiplegic shoulder pain (HSP) has a reported incidence of up to 84% of patients. HSP is multi-factorial in nature and interventions are very varied but are generally unsatisfactory. The objective of this case series study is t...

Inter-rater reliability of ultrasound measurements of acromion–greater tuberosity distance between experienced and novice raters in healthy people (2017)
Journal Article

Acromion-greater tuberosity (AGT) distance is used to assess shoulder pathologies including rotator cuff tears. The aim of this pilot study was, to provide short course of training and assess inter-rater reliability of ultrasonographic measurements o...
