The medical and socioeconomic impact of subacute and chronic shoulder pain is high, resulting in 12 million visits to physicians and over $7 billion in direct costs in the United States. The most common cause is subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS), which accounts for 30% of all shoulder pain. Approximately 35% of patients who present with subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) are refractory to conservative management. For patients who have failed conservative management, there are no established treatments to reduce the pain. The long-term goal is to develop a therapeutic intervention to reduce pain related to subacromial impingement syndrome(SIS). A pilot trial of 3-week percutaneous peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) for participants with chronic shoulder pain due to subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) that was refractory to conservative treatment that showed 60% of participants had successful treatment of pain that lasted at least 3 months. Thus, the primary objective of this 2 site randomized control trial (RCT) is to confirm the findings of this preliminary trial and determine the efficacy of peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) for chronic subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS). The secondary objectives of this multisite randomized control trial (RCT) is to explore mechanisms of peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) for the treatment of subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS), and to determine which characteristics can predict successful treatment with peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS). In order to accomplish these objectives, this trial is a multi-site, placebo controlled, double-blinded randomized control trial (RCT) to compare the efficacy of peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) to sham peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS). Measures of pain, pain interference with activities of daily living (ADLs), capacity for activities of daily living (ADLs), Quality of life (QoL), and measures of central sensitization (pain thresholds, secondary hyperalgesia, and temporal summation) will be measured. Participants will be followed for a total of 24 weeks after treatment has concluded.
