Clinical Trial Summary

Comparison between Abduction External Rotation Brace and Arm Sling after Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff : A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparison of primary outcome : range of motion (at pre-operative , post-operative) , pain score , shoulder functional score

Description:

Comparison between Abduction External Rotation Brace and Arm Sling after Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff : A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparison of primary outcome : range of motion (at pre-operative , post-operative) , pain score , shoulder functional score There are gaps of knowledge which sling/brace are the best for post operative arthroscopic rotator cuff repair Because patient who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair have to wear these sling/brace for at least 1 month after operation , the better one could reduce post-operative shoulder stiffness , decrease pain and improve functional shoulder score

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Change of range of motion of shoulders from baseline	Measurement by Goniometer into degrees (forward flexion, external rotation, internal rotation)	At postoperative 3 weeks
Primary	Change of range of motion of shoulders from baseline	Measurement by Goniometer into degrees (forward flexion, external rotation, internal rotation)	At postoperative 6 weeks
Primary	Change of range of motion of shoulders from baseline	Measurement by Goniometer into degrees (forward flexion, external rotation, internal rotation)	At postoperative 3 months
Primary	Change of range of motion of shoulders from baseline	Measurement by Goniometer into degrees (forward flexion, external rotation, internal rotation)	At postoperative 6 months
Primary	Change of range of motion of shoulder from baseline	Measurement by Goniometer into degrees (forward flexion, external rotation, internal rotation)	At postoperative 1 year
Secondary	Change of visual analog scale for pain from baseline	Range from 1-10 (1 = minimum pain, 10 = maximum pain)	Change from visual analog scale after 6 weeks postoperative
Secondary	Change of constant Murley's score from baseline	Score 0-100 (Functional shoulder score), 0 = worst, 100 = best	Change from visual analog scale after 6 weeks postoperative
Secondary	Change of the Thai version of the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index from baseline	Thai functional shoulder score 0 = worst, 100 = best	Change from visual analog scale after 6 weeks postoperative
