Özet
Objective: Shoulder pain is a common problem after stroke and causes functional limitations in patients. Pain leads to keep away from the movement and physical activities. The aim of this study was to evaluate the fear of movement in stroke patients with shoulder pain and to investigate its relationship with balance and fear of falling. Material and Methods: Forty six stroke patients were included in the study and divided into two groups, with and without shoulder pain. Fear of movement was evaluated by the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia, functional balance was by the Berg Balance Scale and fear of falling was by the Tinetti’s Falls Efficacy Scale. Results: The mean age of patients with and without pain were 65.60±11.37 years and 60.56±14.18 years respectively. In the shoulder painful group, it was determined that there was a negative correlation between balance and the fear of movement (r=-0.417; p=0.048) and that there was a positive correlation between the fear of falling and the fear of movement (r=0.429; p=0.041). In the shoulder painless group, there was no significant correlation (p>0.05). There was a statistically significant difference between the kinesiophobia values of two groups (p?0.05). Conclusion: When balance problems and falls observed in stroke patients are combined with pain and fear of movement, it becomes important to take into account and evaluate the fear of movement in rehabilitation practices.
