NCT ID NCT04917536
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 80 adults with a broken upper arm bone who needed surgery to place a metal nail inside the bone. Researchers compared the usual method (going through the rotator cuff) with a newer method (going through a gap called the rotator interval). The goal was to see which approach leads to faster recovery of arm function over one year. Results are based on pain, daily activities, movement, and strength.
