ROTATOR CUFF INJURIES

This study tests a special collagen implant (REGENETEN) for people with partial-thickness rotator cuff tears. The goal is to see if it helps patients return to daily activities faster than the standard surgical repair. About 234 adults who have not improved after 3 months of othe…

This trial compares standard rotator cuff repair surgery to the same surgery plus a BioEnthesis patch, designed to help tendon reattach to bone more strongly. About 100 adults aged 18–65 with reparable rotator cuff tears will take part. The main goal is to see if the patch reduce…

This study compares two approaches during reverse shoulder replacement: repairing the subscapularis tendon (part of the rotator cuff) or leaving it unrepaired. The goal is to see which method leads to better shoulder function, strength, and lower risk of dislocation. Adults aged …

This study is tracking up to 400 people who are having arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with a device called the REGENETEN Bioinductive Implant. The implant is placed to support healing of the torn tendon. Researchers will measure shoulder function, pain, and quality of life for …

This study is checking the long-term safety and how well a medical device called the Pitch-Patch works for people who have had surgery for a torn rotator cuff in the shoulder. The Pitch-Patch is a small polyester patch that helps strengthen the repair. About 37 people who already…

This study compares two types of full can exercises—concentric and eccentric—for people with partial rotator cuff tears. Sixty participants will do one type of exercise plus standard physiotherapy for 6 weeks. Researchers will measure changes in shoulder muscle structure, pain, a…

This study compares two exercise programs for people with rotator cuff-related shoulder pain. One group gets a standard, fixed program, while the other gets the same exercises but with personalized touches like preferred music, choice of exercises, and motivational feedback. Rese…

This trial compares two standard anesthesia methods—inhaled sevoflurane versus intravenous propofol—during arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. The goal is to see which one gives surgeons a clearer view inside the shoulder joint, which is important for safety and success. About 110 …

This study tests whether Epidiolex (a CBD medicine) can help control pain after shoulder surgery when added to standard painkillers. About 80 adults having rotator cuff repair will take either CBD or a placebo for two weeks after surgery. They will track their pain and medication…

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

This study tests whether adding a long-acting painkiller (liposomal bupivacaine) to a standard steroid injection during shoulder surgery can improve recovery for people with rotator cuff tears and shoulder stiffness. About 70 adults will be randomly assigned to receive either the…

This study compares online physiotherapy (telerehabilitation) with standard in-person sessions for people who have had arthroscopic rotator cuff repair surgery. The goal is to see if the online option works just as well for reducing pain, improving shoulder movement, and helping …

This study looks at whether 8 weeks of kettlebell training can reduce pain and improve shoulder function better than standard rehab. It involves 38 adults with rotator cuff-related shoulder pain who have been active in sports for at least 3 years. Participants will be randomly as…

This study investigates whether tightness in the pectoralis minor, a small chest muscle, is linked to partial rotator cuff tears in the shoulder. Researchers will compare 45 patients with tears to 45 without, matching them by age, sex, body size, and dominant side. Using simple m…

This study investigates whether the thickness of trunk muscles, along with balance and body awareness, relates to shoulder problems caused by rotator cuff injuries. Researchers will compare measurements from people with rotator cuff issues to those without shoulder pain. The goal…

This study follows 500 people who are already scheduled for routine shoulder or knee surgery for sports injuries. Researchers will track their recovery over two years using questionnaires about pain and function. The goal is to find out which factors—like injury type or surgical …

This study looks at why exercise helps some people with shoulder pain from rotator cuff tendinopathy but not others. Researchers will use brain scans to see how exercise changes the brain and find out who is most likely to get better. The goal is to make exercise treatments more …

This study observes 60 adults having shoulder surgery to see how often a common nerve block (interscalene brachial plexus block) causes temporary paralysis of the diaphragm, the main breathing muscle. Participants are split into three groups receiving different types of local ane…
