It's not suitable for those with rotator cuff tears, shoulder arthritis, or anyone using implantable or wearable electrical medical devices like pacemakers and glucose sensors.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing a 'shoulder pacemaker' to see if it can improve pain and movement in patients with shoulder dyskinesia. Participants will undergo rehabilitation using this device, and their pain levels will be monitored to assess effectiveness.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the specific side effects of the shoulder pacemaker are not detailed here, similar devices may cause discomfort at the site of application, muscle spasms, skin irritation from adhesive pads, or unexpected changes in muscle movements.
