Background Subacromial pain syndrome (SAPS) is one of the causes of shoulder pain in workers performing repetitive upper extremity movements. However, there have been no studies on physical characteristics such as shoulder total rotational range of motion (ROM) and external to internal rotation muscle strength ratio of workers. Purpose The purpose of this study was to compare the total rotational ROM and external to internal rotation muscle strength ratio in workers with and without SAPS. Study design A cross-sectional study Methods This study included 35 workers with SAPS and 32 workers without SAPS. The total rotational ROM were measured using Smart KEMA motion sensor, and external to internal rotation muscle strength were measured using Smart KEMA pulling sensor. Results The results showed that there were significant differences in the total rotation ROM between the groups (p<0.05). However, no significant difference was found in the external to internal rotation muscle strength ratio (p>0.05). Conclusions Assembly line workers with SAPS had limited total rotational ROM. However, the ratio of external to internal rotation muscle strength ratio was not different for workers without SAPS. These characteristics can be considered factors that should be considered in evaluating workers with SAPS and establishing a treatment plan.
