Individual unit of randomization Parallel-group, concealed envelop method used Subjects were randomly allocated to both groups based on a computer-generated randomized design. The randomization allocation was sealed in opaque envelopes, and the clinical coordinator did not know about the group to which the subject would be assigned until the envelopes were opened, Blinding description: The assessors and statisticians were blinded until the completion of the study. They were not aware of the interventions and groups. Concealed opaque envelopes were used for group assignment. N/A Rotator cuff tendinopathy. Intervention 1: Intervention group: It received incentive spirometry in addition to routine physical therapy. Control group: It received deep breathing exercises along with routine physical therapy. About 2000 shockwaves of 0.32mJ/mm2per treatment were given as 10 sessions for the first six weeks(two sessions/week). The regions of tendinopathy were identified by the US, and the corresponding surfaces of the regions were marked. ESWT was conducted using a ShockMaster 500 device (GymnaUniphy NV, Bilzen, Belgium)twice a week for six weeks in total. Each treatment consisted of 2000 shocks with a frequency of 120 shocks per minute. Each ESWTsession took about 15-20 minutes. ESWT application was performed on the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, and subscapularis tendons. In successive treatments, an energy density of 0.32mJ/mm2 was used. An isotonic gel was used as an intermediate before the probe was applied to the patient’s shoulder, and no local anaesthetic was used. Intervention 2: Control group: Routine treatment was administered to the patients in both experimental and RPT groups and it included these items: general exercise plan included ROM exercises, stretching, and strengthening exercises of abductors and flexors of the shoulder) performed twice a week in 10 sessions.
