The quality of life can be affected in patients with Rotator Cuff Syndrome (RCS) who have pain and restricted shoulder movements. The aim of our study is to examine the effect of the pain on functional status, quality of life and physical activity levels in daily life activities of RCS patients. 40 patients (19-64 ages) with RC were included in the study. Pain severity (Visual Analogue Scale- VAS), upper extremity functional status and disability (Quick-DASH questionnaire), physical activity level (International Physical Activity Questionnaire- IPAQ) and health related quality of life (Short Form-36- SF-36) were evaluated. Statistical analyzes were made using the SPSS 25.0 program.The cases mean age was 50.40 ± 11.37 and of 26 were female and of 14 were male. In the study, significant relationship was found between the Quick-DASH score and shoulder pain at night, at rest, during activity and during heavy object carrying (p <0.05). It was observed that there were significant negative correlation between SF-36 subtest scores and shoulder pain at night, at rest, activity, and carrying heavy objects (p <0.05). No statistically significant correlation was found between the severity of shoulder pain and the IPAQ result scores (p>0.05). The shoulder pain caused a decrease in functional status and quality of life and had no effect on the level of physical activity.}, number={2}, publisher={Gümüşhane Üniversitesi}
