Summary

This study is testing a new medical device called the lok™ suture anchor system for repairing torn tendons and labrum in the shoulder. About 216 adults with rotator cuff tears, shoulder instability, or partial tendon avulsions will receive the anchors during surgery. Researchers will track their pain, shoulder function, and tendon healing for 12 months to see if the device is safe and works well.
