Abstract
The aim of the present work is to introduce SHOULPHY: a digital application, which includes a rehabilitation protocol for the treatment of Shoulder Impingement Syndrome (SIS). SHOULPHY, short for Shoulder Physiotherapy, represents a valid contribute for physicians allowing for the creation of a patient-centred physiotherapic program and remote monitoring patient’s adherence to it, both in clinics and daily life. The application permits quantitative and effective evaluation of the therapeutic activity and functional level, through the use of wearable devices. The final purpose is to facilitate the functional recovery and maintenance of the physical level gained through the rehabilitation program, allowing for a complete return to sport and ordinary activities.
