Test-retest reliability of movement-evoked pain and sensitivity to movement-evoked pain in patients with rotator cuff-related shoulder pain

ABSTRACT: Highlights • Movement-evoked pain is a reliable measure in people with shoulder pain.• Sensitivity to movement-evoked pain index derived from the studied MEP procedure is not a reliable measure in people with shoulder pain.• Other ways of assessing sensitivity to movement-evoked pain are warranted.

Background

The number of researchers and clinicians using movement-evoked pain and sensitivity to movement-evoked pain to assess shoulder pain has increased. However, the intrarater test-retest reliability of movement-evoked pain and sensitivity to movement-evoked pain in people with rotator cuff-related shoulder pain (RCRSP) is still unknown.

Objective

We examined the intrarater test-retest reliability of movement-evoked pain and sensitivity to movement-evoked pain in particip
