Filter by:This study aims to investigate the effects of Pregabalin intake on shoulder pain management in patients with central sensitization undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Although Pregabalin is known to be effective in controlling pain after shoulder arthroscopy, research on its efficacy in pain management for patients with central sensitization is scarce. Utilizing a list that identifies central sensitization, this study will explore whether Pregabalin can reduce postoperative pain in these patients and potentially improve joint mobility, emotional, and physical functioning. A prospective randomized study is planned, with inclusion criteria set for patients aged between 19 and 70 who have undergone arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. The study will compare clinical outcomes up to one year postoperatively between two groups of 38 patients each. The case group will receive standard postoperative medications (NSAIDs) plus Pregabalin oral intake from the day before surgery to six weeks postoperatively, while the control group will receive only the standard postoperative medications without Pregabalin.
Randomized controlled trial comparing benefits of varying amounts of proximal humerus-derived bone marrow aspirate and bone marrow concentrate in rotator cuff repair.
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the Integrity bio-inductive implant in treating partial and full thickness rotator cuff tears. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How does the application of the Integrity implant affect patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) such as ASES, SANE, and PROMIS? - What are the imaging characteristics of the rotator cuff tears at 3 and 6 months postoperatively when using the Integrity implant? Postoperative MRIs will be obtained from 10 consecutive patients who have undergone rotator cuff repair using the Integrity implant at 3 and 6 months after surgery. Participants include those with partial and full thickness tears treated with different surgical techniques involving the implant. They may receive either isolated onlay use of the graft for partial tears or augmentation of a standard single or double row repair with the graft applied to the superior surface of the repair.
Rotator cuff tears in the shoulder are common, often cause pain and disability, often fail to heal with surgery, and both tears and failure of healing are associated with estradiol deficiency. In this study, women who have gone through menopause will be randomized to either estradiol patches or placebo patches after repair of the rotator cuff. The purpose of this study is to determine whether estradiol patches show promise in improving shoulder pain, strength, and function when given with rotator cuff repair.
Determine the optimal degree of retroversion (0-30º) to obtain the best rotational mobility, both internal and external, of the shoulder after implanting a reversed sghoulder arthroplasty (Comprehensive system), and analyze the functional and radiologic results based on humeral retroversion.
Rotator cuff (RC) injuries are particularly prevalent, difficult to repair, and attachment between the bone and tendon is notoriously difficult to achieve. The most common method and current standard of care (SOC) for reattaching connective tissues (e.g., ligaments, tendons) to bone typically involves suture anchor-based techniques, but this is fraught with problems. More specifically, re-tearing of the connective tissue after this procedure occurs in 30-60% of cases, and can be even higher in patients who engage in smoking, have a diagnosis of diabetes, etc. To address these clinical challenges, Sparta Biopharma Inc. (Sparta) developed a unique technology, called BioEnthesis, to improve the connection between the tendon and bone. Pre-clinical in vivo studies demonstrated that the biphasic bovine cancellous matrix regenerated at the bone-soft tissue interface-thereby leading to high structural integrity and will likely lead to reduced re-tear rates over time. The investigators hypothesize that patients in this interventional cohort will experience enhanced mobility, reduced pain, and less re-tears after RC procedures versus a standard suture anchor-based repair.
The study design is a prospective, multi-center, single-arm, non-randomized, and noncontrolled post market clinical follow-up study involving orthopedic surgeons skilled in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair as determined by the Sponsor.
Suprascapular nerve block is an injection method that has been shown to be effective in shoulder rehabilitation in diseases such as adhesive capsulitis and stroke .. Applying the block under USG guidance instead of blinding increases the effectiveness and reduces complications.
The aim of the study is to investigate the effect and the impact of performing virtual reality intervention on upper extremity function in patients with post-operative rotator cuff repair. The main question that it aims to answer is: Does the application of virtual reality intervention improves upper extremity function in patients with post-operative rotator cuff repair. Participants will be randomized into 2 groups: the control group receiving conventional physical therapy intervention and the experimental group receiving the virtual reality intervention.
