Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Home-based exercises can improve function and quality of life in shoulder pain patients. Knowing the facilitators and barriers is crucial for adherence to shoulder pain treatment. It is believed that individuals who adhere to home exercises have fewer environmental barriers, pain intensity and shoulder disability. The aim of this study is to identify facilitators and barriers for adherence to a home-based exercise program in shoulder pain individuals, and to investigate the influence of environmental barriers, shoulder pain and disability, and kinesiophobia on adherence to a program. 
METHODS: This is a cross-sectional study. Shoulder pain individuals performed home-based exercises for eight weeks based on a booklet in addition to supervised physical therapy or as their sole therapy. They reported the perceived facilitators and barriers to home exercises adherence and answered the Craig Hospital Inventory of Environmental Factors (CHIEF), Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI), and the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK) questionnaires. Logistic regression models analyzed the scores of the CHIEF, SPADI, and TSK as predictors of adherence. 
RESULTS: Fifty individuals participated in this study and 88% adhered to the program. The most frequent facilitator and barrier were “having guidance from a professional,” and “lack of available time,” respectively. Pain and disability were the only predictor of adherence (p=0.044), and an increase of one point in SPADI reduced the likelihood of adherence to home exercises by 14% (Exp(B) =0.86). 
CONCLUSION: Individuals reported facilitators and barriers to the exercise program. Environmental barriers assessed using the CHIEF and kinesiophobia were not predictors of adherence.

Resumo

JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: Os exercícios domiciliares podem melhorar a função e a qualidade de vida de pacientes com dor no ombro. Conhecer facilitadores e barreiras é fundamental para adesão ao tratamento da dor no ombro. Acredita-se que indivíduos que aderem aos exercícios domiciliares apresentem poucas barreiras ambientais, baixa intensidade de dor e incapacidade do ombro. O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar facilitadores e barreiras para a adesão a um programa de exercícios domiciliares em indivíduos com dor no ombro e investigar a influência de barreiras ambientais, da dor e incapacidade no ombro, e da cinesiofobia na adesão ao programa. 
MÉTODOS: Neste estudo transversal, indivíduos com dor no ombro realizaram exercícios domiciliares por oito semanas com base em uma cartilha  além da fisioterapia supervisionada ou como sua única terapia. Os indivíduos relataram facilitadores e barreiras percebidos para a adesão aos exercícios em casa e responderam ao Craig Hospital Inventory of Environmental Factors-Brasil (CHIEF-Br), Shoulder Pain and Disability Index-Brasil (SPADI-Br) e Escala Tampa de Cinesiofobia (TAMPA). Os escores do CHIEF-Br, SPADI-Br e TAMPA foram analisados como preditores de adesão por meio de modelos de regressão logística. 
RESULTADOS: Participaram do estudo 50 indivíduos e 88% aderiram ao programa. O facilitador e a barreira mais frequentes foram “receber orientação de um profissional” e “falta de tempo disponível”, respectivamente. Dor e incapacidade foram os únicos preditores de adesão (p=0,044), e o aumento de um ponto no SPADI-Br reduziu a probabilidade de adesão aos exercícios domiciliares em 14% (Exp(B) =0,86). 
CONCLUSÃO: Os indivíduos relataram facilitadores e barreiras ao programa de exercícios. As barreiras ambientais avaliadas por meio do CHIEF-Br e a cinesiofobia não foram preditores da adesão.
