Filter by: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).
The purpose of this study is to see how well the ActiveMatrix® graft works at improving healing and function of the shoulder following rotator cuff repair surgery
The perspective, randomized controlled trial is to investigate and evaluate the effect of Tizanidine on the function and pain of patients with rotator cuff tear after shoulder arthroscopy;
The aim of this study is to collect a sum of different characteristics that have been mentioned previously in people presenting with RCRSP and by clustering them to create a phenotype system which may assist the individualisation of their management
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of gabapentin in patients undergoing rotator cuff repair surgery. The main question it aims to answer is whether gabapentin can improve postoperative pain and sleep quality. Participants in this study will be randomized to either take gabapentin after surgery or a placebo after surgery.
The purpose of this pilot study is to assess the feasibility of a full randomized trial design.
Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of motor imagery on muscle activity, pain, and function in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Methods: As a result of the power analysis (G-Power), 36 participants are planned to be included in this study Block randomization will be used to divide participants into 2 groups, each with at least 18 participants: Group 1 (MI group) and Group 2 (Control group) (Randomizer.org). Both groups will receive a 4-week physical therapy program. MI (Motor Imagination) group will receive a motor imagination program in addition to the physical therapy program. Data will collect using the visual analog scale (VAS), goniometric measurement, circumference measurement, Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand Questionnaire (DASH), Kinesthetic and Visual Imagery Questionnaire- KVIQ-20, Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale, 3-question satisfaction questionnaire, superficial Electromyography (EMG) (BTS Bioengineering Free EMG 100 RT). Practice Implications: The current study will contribute to understanding how motor imagination affects muscle activity and muscle atrophy.
The main aim and scope of this study is making observation and comparing the difference in the tear position in the patients suffered form rotator cuff tear with different arthroscopic anatomy of the middle glenohumeral ligament. The results may identify the influence of the middle glenohumeral ligament anatomy type on the rotator cuff tear.
The main aim and scope of this study is making measurement and comparison of the cross-sectional area of the long head of the biceps tendon(LHBT) in the patients suffered form rotator cuff tear with different tear positions, and making observation and comparison of the impairment type of the LHBT in the patients suffered from rotator cuff tear with different tear positions. The results may identify the influence of the tear position on the LHBT.
Rotator cuff injuries are the most common cause of shoulder disability and is increasingly more prevalent in the aging population. Rotator cuff repair has long been the mainstay of treatment for symptomatic full-thickness tears and medium to large partial thickness tears that do no improve with nonoperative therapies. Approximately 32% of the US population is Vitamin D deficient. This is important for many health reasons, but specifically, Vitamin D has been found to play a critical role in bone mineralization and fracture healing/prevention. There is emerging data to support Vitamin D's role in regulating the inflammatory response throughout the body, which includes soft tissue (i.e. tendons) healing. The role of Vitamin D in tendon to bone healing has yet to be fully investigated, yet it is reasonable to conclude that normal blood levels of Vitamin D would optimize the setting for healing in rotator cuff repair. The investigators hypothesize that Vitamin D deficient patients undergoing shoulder rotator cuff repair will experience more positive outcomes and decreased complications when supplemented with Vitamin D3, compared to Vitamin D deficient patients who do not receive supplementation. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the positive effect of Vitamin D3 in rotator cuff repair healing and patient reported outcomes in patients who are Vitamin D deficient
