All of them received routine rehabilitation therapy, and the observation group received club exercise in addition. The incidenceof shoulder pain, the active range of motion of shoulder, the motor function of upper limb and activities of daily living (ADL) of 2groups were evaluated before and 2 courses (60 d) after treatment. Results There was no statistical difference between 2 groups before thetreatment (P>0.05). After 2-course treatment, the incidence of shoulder pain was significantly lower in the observation group than in the controlgroup (P<0.001), the active range of motion of shoulder, motor function of upper limb and ADL were significantly better in the observationgroup than in the control group (P<0.001).
