NCT ID: NCT05906004 Not yet recruiting - Rotator Cuff Tears Clinical Trials

Retrospective Data Collection and Prospective Clinical Investigation for the Augmentation or Reinforcement of the Rotator Cuff Using the Pitch-Patch

Start date: January 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

This is a clinical investigation study. It will verify the long-term safety and performance of the Pitch-Patch when implanted to reinforce partially repairable rotator cuff tears and used as described by the manufacturer's instructions. The medical device in this study is already on the market and is manufactured by Xiros Ltd. The Pitch-Patch is a single-use polyester prosthesis available in two sizes (30x20mm and 35x25mm). It is reinforced around the perimeter and around each eyelet to provide strength and stability to the device and repair. The study will collect data on patients who meet the entry criteria and have received the device. This is a single-armed study, meaning all patients will have a Pitch-Patch. The total length of the is expected to be 4 years; this includes a recruitment period of 2 years, and a follow-up period (for the prospective clinical investigation) of 2 years. A minimum of 32 patients will be enrolled into the study. Follow-up data will be collected at (if available for retrospective data) 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years and final follow-up (maximum 2.5 years for prospective study; maximum of 5 years for retrospective study).

Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Sayed Issa's Hybrid Shoulder Arthroscopic-Open Surgical Management (HSSM) is a limited lateral approach to the shoulder arthroscopically guided. Which achieves less surgical trauma and smaller surgical incision than even in Mini Lateral Shoulder Approach (MLSA).

NCT ID: NCT05320419 Recruiting - Rotator Cuff Tear Clinical Trials

The Effect of Amniotic Membrane Injection as An Addition to Physical Therapy in Patients With Rotator Cuff Tear

Start date: March 29, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Rotator cuff tear (RCT) is a commonly seen pathology in shoulder disease, which causes significant disability in daily living and work. Based on a cohort study of a large population, the prevalence of rotator cuff full-thickness tear was 20.7%. More broadly, the prevalence of rotator cuff abnormalities increased with age and up to 62% in population more than 80 years old. The pathophysiology of RCT could be attributed to extrinsic factors such as impingement by surrounding tissue and intrinsic factor such as tendon degeneration. According to previous study using histochemical and immunocytochemical techniques, fibrocartilaginous metaplasia, decreasing vascularity and fibroblast numbers were found in rotator cuff tear. Besides, the inflammatory response diminished as the tear size increased. The treatment of RCT includes surgery and non-operative treatment. The prognosis depends on the symptoms, tear size, chronicity and other structures involvement. Previous meta-analysis study reported that the effectiveness between surgery and conservative treatment is similar in treating RCT. Therefore, relative rest, oral medication, physical therapy and injection therapy were commonly used in first-line treatments. When treating shoulder pain with injection therapy, steroid was often used at first for short-term pain relief and anti-inflammation. However, the potential cytotoxic effect was found and could be harmful in tendon repair. To accelerative the healing process of soft tissue injury, regenerative injection become more popular and expectable over past few years. A meta-analysis study reported the positive long-term effect of prolotherapy and platelet-rich plasma (PRP). More recently, bone marrow concentrate (BMC) and amniotic membrane (AM) have been used in soft tissue repair and many clinical studies are processing.

NCT ID: NCT04819724 Recruiting - Rotator Cuff Tear Clinical Trials

Load-induced Changes in Glenohumeral Translation in Patients With Rotator Cuff Tear

LiTrans
Start date: May 4, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study is to investigate the dose-response relationship between load-induced muscle activation (liMA) and load-induced glenohumeral translation (liTr) in patients with rotator cuff tears and asymptomatic control subjects. Furthermore the study is to investigate the in vivo dose-response relationship between additional weight and glenohumeral translation, to understand the biological variation in liTr, the influence of disease pathology on the liTr, the potential compensation by muscle activation and muscle size, and the influence of liTr on patient outcomes.

NCT ID: NCT04601623 Completed - Rotator Cuff Tear Clinical Trials

Ultrasound to Predict the Prognosis of Rotator Cuff Tears

Start date: August 1, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

To predict the prognosis of large-to-massive RCTs and risk of re-tear by ultrasound elastography.

Start date: September 21, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study is a prospective observational trial. Data of 4 hospitals will be used to find out the efficacy of conservative treatment in rotator cuff tear.

NCT ID: NCT04459858 Completed - Rotator Cuff Tear Clinical Trials

Evaluating the Use of a Bioinductive Graft in Treating Massive Rotator Cuff Tears

Start date: January 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The rotator cuff is a complex of 4 tendons that aid in stabilizing and moving the shoulder. Rotator cuff tears are common shoulder injuries in adults. While some tears can be managed by physiotherapy, other rotator cuff tears will require surgery. On occasion, when a person has had a large rotator cuff tear for a long period of time, the tear can grow and the tendons retract. This effect makes it very difficult for the tendons to be repaired to their normal spot. The most common surgical technique employed to manage a tear that cannot be repaired is to remove all unhealthy, inflamed scar tissue in a process called debridement. Often there is a bone spur that must be shaved down as well. This can help to reduce the pain in the patient as well as assist the range of motion slightly but will not prevent the tear becoming larger. This will also not prevent a re-tear of the tendons. Recently, surgeons have begun using a variety of materials to help reconstruct torn rotator cuffs. New grafts made of highly purified collagen from bovine tendons has been used to bridge large gaps in the tendons, and repair the tendon back to the bone. This technique has been done many times by skilled shoulder surgeons in Canada, the United States and around the world. Initial reports by surgeons who do this procedure show that the patients have less pain and better range of motion than before the surgery. Shoulder surgeons do not know which is the better treatment for large rotator cuff tears. Both treatments (graft and debridement) can reduce pain and improve movement of the shoulder. The purpose of this study is to help determine whether patients who receive an allograft have better function and fewer re-tear at one year after surgery than those who received a debridement alone.
