Filter by:The investigators aim to determine if a longer acting nerve block, which is a local anesthetic, can help reduce opioid use after surgery in patients that are getting rotator cuff repair surgery. The investigators will also determine if the longer acting block can reduce the number of days that opioids are taken after surgery. Patients that schedule this type of surgery will be given information regarding the study and asked if they want to participate. If they do, they will be randomized to either receive the standard nerve block or the longer acting nerve block. Participants and physicians will not know which nerve block the participants are receiving. Participants will receive a standard pain medication prescription after surgery and will be asked to record pain scores, medications taken and satisfaction level every day in a journal for two weeks. Participants will be asked to bring in their medication bottles and pain journal to the 2-week follow up appointment. Participants' pain scores will be assessed in the office at the follow up appointment and study staff will conduct a pill count. Participants will return for a 6-week follow up appointment and pain scores will be assessed again at that time, and another pill count will be conducted. At this point the study will be complete.
To determine if an acellular dermal graft (ADG) will incorporate into the rotator cuff and subsequently improve outcomes without an increase in risk to the patient
Shoulder arthroscopy is widely used for treatment of different shoulder pathologies. Visual clarity is essential for successful and safe surgery. The aim of present study is to determine whether intraarticular use of tranexamic acid (TXA) in surgery fluid can improve visual clarity and early postoperative pain.
Shoulder arthroscopy provides many benefits with a permanent increase in the possibilities and complexity of the application. A condition to perform it is intraoperative visual clarity dependent on hemorrhage control. The aim of this prospective, double blind, randomized, and controlled study is to examine the effect of intravenously administered tranexamic acid (TXA) on the visual clarity, perioperative hemorrhage, duration and early postoperative course of shoulder arthroscopy in beach chair position, which is not yet available in the literature. In the tested and control group, the investigators measure hemoglobin (Hb) in the waste irrigation fluid and the patient's blood before and after the procedure, visual clarity, duration of the procedure, postoperative shoulder swelling, pain level and analgesic drug consumption. The research uses scientific methods to determine if there is a reasonable basis for introducing TXA into routine clinical use.
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
This study aimed to determine the psychosocial effects of exercise training in patients with rotator cuff tears.
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of Serious-Game Exercise (SGE) platform on pain, range of motion (ROM), joint position sense, shoulder functions, and approximation force in patients with rotator cuff rupture. In addition, another objective is to evaluate the usage of balance board as a measurement tool for measuring the approximation force in the rotator cuff rupture.
Postoperative rehabilitation following rotator cuff repair is important to promote tendon healing, restore strength, and recover normal function. The aim of this study is to assess whether aquatic rehabilitation is more efficient than classical rehabilitation (land-based session) in term of range of motion, function, and pain than classical rehabilitation (land-based session) after an arthroscopic repair of the rotator cuff.
this study was conducted the patients with rotator cuff tears who underwent rotator cuff repair surger.The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups and a total of 20 subjects were randomized in a single block order using RandomAllocation Software 1.0.0 by simple randomization.All evaluation and treatment was done by the same physiotherapist.The first group was included in the traditional treatment program after rotator cuff repair, while the second group was included in the myofascial release program, 2 sessions a week between the 4th and 7th weeks, in addition to the traditional treatment.
A retrospective analysis was performed on patients with bursal-side partial-thickness rotator cuff tears who underwent arthroscopic surgery from January 2009 to December 2011. To investigate the diagnosis and arthroscopic treatment of partial rotator cuff bursa lateral tear, and to evaluate the postoperative functional outcome and tendon healing.
