This study tests whether Epidiolex (a CBD medicine) can help control pain after shoulder surgery. About 80 adults having rotator cuff repair will take either CBD or a placebo for two weeks after surgery. Participants will track their pain and medication use in a daily diary and c…

This study looks at whether 8 weeks of kettlebell training can reduce pain and improve shoulder function better than standard rehab in 38 active adults with rotator cuff-related shoulder pain. Participants will be randomly assigned to either kettlebell exercises or a standard reh…

This study tests whether adding platelet-rich plasma and a long-acting painkiller to standard steroid injections during shoulder surgery can reduce pain and improve function. About 70 adults with torn rotator cuffs and shoulder stiffness will be followed for 12 months after surge…

This study tests whether a special cold and compression wrap works better than standard ice packs for pain and swelling after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. About 100 adults having shoulder surgery will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatments. The goal is to improve …

This study compares online physical therapy (telerehabilitation) with in-person sessions for people recovering from arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. About 46 adults aged 40-70 will take part. The goal is to see if virtual visits can provide similar relief for pain and improve sh…

This study looks at whether tightness in a small chest muscle (pectoralis minor) is linked to rotator cuff tears in the shoulder. Researchers will compare 45 people with tears to 45 without, matching them by age, sex, and activity level. The goal is to help doctors better underst…

This study watches 60 adults having shoulder surgery to see how often a common nerve block causes temporary paralysis of the diaphragm (the main breathing muscle). Participants get one of three types of nerve blocks and are checked with ultrasound for up to 3 days after surgery. …

This study follows 500 people who are already scheduled for minimally invasive shoulder or knee surgery for sports injuries like torn ligaments or rotator cuff tears. Researchers will collect information about each person's injury, surgery, and recovery over two years to learn wh…

This study follows 50 people over age 50 who had arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Researchers will measure shoulder disability, pain (at rest, during movement, and at night), and sleep quality over time. The goal is to better understand recovery patterns and help create clearer …
