InSpace Accelerated Rehabilitation Study
This is a prospective, parallel group, open-label, multi- center, randomized study to assess two accelerated rehabilitation programs for use with the InSpace device in the treatment of full thickness Massive, Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tears (MIRCTs) performed during an arthroscopic procedure.
Subscap Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty
The subscapularis is part of the rotator cuff and is release as part of a reverse shoulder replacement. The decision to repair this tendon is controversial. This research is being done to help determine if rotator cuff repair improves or hinders shoulder replacement. A worrisome but rare complication after shoulder …
A Clinical Research on Repair of Massive-large Rotator Cuff Tears
The study is designed as a randomized controlled trial, a total of 52 participants with large massive rotator cuff tears will be prospectively enrolled and randomly divided into 2 groups according to the applied repairing technique: novel double row technique group and suture bridge double row technique group. The functional …
RSA vs RCR for Massive RCTs
Different treatment options are available for massive or irreparable rotator cuff tears. An arthroscopic or an open repair approach is possible in the majority of cases and functional outcomes are improved, particularly when a complete arthroscopic repair can be achieved. However, the healing rate of massive rotator cuff tears after …
Sex Hormone Supplementation and Rotator Cuff Repair: A Preliminary Randomized Trial
Shoulder tendon tears are a common cause of shoulder pain and disability and after surgery the repaired tendon often does not heal. In this pilot study, men with low sex hormone levels will be randomly assigned to receive sex hormone therapy or placebo pills while healing from tendon repair surgery …
Shoulder Surgery Traditional vs Accelerated Rehabilitation Trial
This is a randomised controlled trial involving patients who have a double-row arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Null hypothesis: There is no difference in outcome between standard rehabilitation and accelerated rehabilitation after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Following surgery, they will be randomised to one of two groups: Standard rehabilitation, with enforced …
Comparison of Partial Rotator Cuff Repair vs. Superior Capsular Reconstruction for Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tears
The primary objective of this prospective randomized controlled trial is to compare pain and functional outcomes between two surgical modalities for irreparable rotator cuff tears as measured by the pain visual analog scale (VAS), simple shoulder test (SST), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgery shoulder score (ASES), and Patient Reported Outcomes …
Acellular Matrix From Human Dermis in Combination With Orthobiologic Stimuli for Augmentation of Massive Rotator Cuff Tears
The use of biologic acellular matrices for the surgical augmentation of rotator cuff lesions has greatly expanded inrecent years. The study team patented a method for removing cells from human dermis (Acellular Dermal Matrix), maintaining unaltered biological and structural integrity. Acellular Dermal Matrix has been succesfully used for rotator cuff …
Superior Capsular Reconstruction vs. Partial Repair for Massive Rotator Cuff Tears
Little evidence exists to guide treatment in patients with massive irreparable rotator cuff tears (MRCTS). Arthroscopic partial rotator cuff repair (PRCR) has the longest record of use. The new technique of superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) has more recently been described. Despite high enthusiasm for this technique, its effectiveness, cost and …
The Effect of Self-rehabilitation Using Communication APP After Arthroscopic Surgery for Rotator Cuff Tear
The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical effect of a mobile application supporting home-based rehabilitation for the patients after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. The investigators hypothesized the clinical results of the patients using a mobile application (APP) to support the home-based rehabilitation were comparable to the patients …
