Notes. WUSPI = Wheelchair User's Shoulder Pain Index. NRS = Numerical Rating Scale. PESS-ST = Physical Examination of the Shoulder Scale supraspinatus tendon subscale. USPRS-ST = Ultrasound Shoulder Pathology Rating Scale supraspinatus tendon subscale.
aP < 0.001; significantly different from baseline at all points (P < 0.001).
bP < 0.01; significantly different from baseline at all points (P < 0.01).
cP < 0.01; significantly different from baseline at all points (P < 0.05).
eP > 0.05.
