NCT ID NCT05906004
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
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 received the patch 2 to 2.5 years ago will be followed for up to 3 years to see how their shoulder function changes and if any problems occur.
