title: [The early rehabilitation of the patients with shoulder impingement syndrome using robotic technologies].
abstract: The objective of the present study was to develop a complex of rehabilitative measures for the treatment of the patients presenting with shoulder impingement syndrome including the combined application of the robotic technology based on the Multi-Joint System (Italy) in conjunction with physical therapy and massage. In addition, we estimated dynamics of the "American assessment shoulder and elbow surgery" test, the shoulder score index, the range of motion in the shoulder joint on the affected side with the help of the Multi-Joint System. It is concluded that the early use of the Multi-Joint System in combination with physical therapy and massage techniques provides the highly efficacious tool for the management of the patients suffering impingement syndrome.
