Can Testosterone Accelerate Injury Recovery After Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair

Rotator Cuff Tears Clinical Trial

Official title:
A Randomized, Blinded Controlled Trial to Determine if Testosterone Can Accelerate Injury Recovery After Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair

Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this study is to determine if treating patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with testosterone will allow patients to accelerate their recovery time after surgery.

Clinical Trial Description

Specific Aim I: To determine if testosterone treatment would provide superior patient-determined quality-of-life and activity scores in patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair compared to a control group at 3 months after surgery. Specific Aim II: To determine if testosterone treatment would allow for greater postoperative strength improvements in patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair compared to a control group at 3 months after surgery. Specific Aim III: To determine if testosterone treatment would allow for greater postoperative range of motion improvements in patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair compared to a control group at 3 months after surgery. Specific Aim IV: To determine if the potentially higher activity levels allowed by the testosterone treatment would affect the success of rotator cuff healing as determined by magnetic resonance imaging at one year after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. The hypothesis of this study was that testosterone treatment of patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair would allow patients to achieve 1) better quality-of-life and higher activity levels as determined by patient-determined outcome scores, 2) greater improvements in strength, and 3) greater improvements in range of motion at three months after surgery as compared to the control group. In addition, the authors hypothesize that there would be equivalent healing rates at one year after rotator cuff repair as determined by magnetic resonance imaging between the testosterone group and the control group. ;
