Filter by:Randomized controlled trial examining platelet rich plasma versus corticosteroid injection in partial thickness rotator cuff tears or tendinopathy.
This study is a comparison of analgesia effect from peripheral nerve blockade (PNB) with liposomal bupivacaine combined with bupivacaine compared to PNB with ropivacaine combined with dexamethasone for arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.
Pain is one of the most important factors affecting the quality of life. The quality of life of patients with pain and restricted shoulder movements can be affected in patients with Rotator Cuff Syndrome (RCS).
In the post-arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR) management, physical therapy intervention is an important factor in bringing about a clinically positive prognosis. However, no conclusive therapeutic evidence has been found for various physical therapy interventions. In this study, the investigators would like to investigate the effects of physical therapy interventions on ARCR patients.
The purpose of this study is to conduct a prospective randomized controlled trial to compare the effects of arthroscopic debridement and repair for Ellman grade II bursal-side partial-thickness rotator cuff tears.The hypothesis was that there would be no difference in prognosis between arthroscopic debridement and repair.
During the rehabilitation process after rotator cuff repair surgery, patients suffer from increased pain and discomfort due to dysfunction. Pain neuroscience education, a more modern educational method, has been reported to be effective in controlling pain by reducing the fear of movement based on an understanding of neurophysiology.
Purpose: To assess whether the use of platelet-rich plasma used as an adjuvant to arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs modify the rate of re-tears (measured by MRI) compared to a control group that only underwent the isolated arthroscopic repair. Hypothesis: Platelet rich plasma used as an adjuvant to arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs decrease the rate of retears.
This study is aprospective cohort study on the outcome of a combination of bone marrow stimulation and modified suture bridge in the arthroscopic treatment of small and medium rotator cuff tear. The patients with small to medium rotator cuff injuries (less than 3cm in diameter) requiring arthroscopic surgery were collected. The patients were followed up before and 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after surgery, including pain, functional score, joint range of motion, MRI and CT findings, complications and other quantitative and qualitative indicators. The self-control and intra group analysis were performed to evaluate the treatment effect; and the correlation analysis was performed on the treatment results To determine the important factors affecting the therapeutic effect.
Various stretches are used to lengthen the posterior shoulder capsule. No study has reported the comparison of the pragmatic posterior capsular stretch and cross body stertch
Subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) is a dysfunction caused by an impingement of the rotator cuff tendon between the head of the humerus and the acromion as a result of changes in the subacromial space. The patients' symptoms, such as pain, limited joint mobility and reduced strength, may lead to a diagnosis of SIS. The conservative treatment of individuals with SIS is includes analgesics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), steroid injections and physiotherapy. Ultrasound therapy is one of the common physiotherapy applications for SIS, but its effectiveness is controversial. Phonophoresis is a combination of ultrasound therapy and medical therapy. In phonophoresis, a medicine in gel form is used as a transmitter with ultrasound instead of the aquatic conductor gel. It was hypothesized that ultrasound waves favoring the penetration of an anti-inflammatory drug would lead to an improved response to the treatment of SIS. However, the effectiveness of ultrasound modes (pulsed or continuous) can be used in phonophoresis is debatable. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of ultrasound therapy, pulsed mode ultrasound and continuous mode ultrasound phonophoresis in patients with SIS.
