Plain-language summary

The primary aim of our study is to evaluate shoulder pain, range of motion, postural changes, muscle tightness, activities of daily living, upper extremity functional status, and exercise capacity in individuals with Implantable Cardiac Electronic Devices (ICED), during each follow-up visit over a two-year period, and to compare the assessment outcomes according to different types of implantable cardiac electronic devices. The secondary aim of our study is to investigate the factors determining the severity and duration of shoulder pain in these patients.
