New shoulder surgery put to the test against standard repair

NCT ID NCT04742452

Summary

This study is comparing two surgical approaches for severe shoulder tears that cannot be fully repaired. Researchers are testing whether adding a newer procedure called superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) to a standard partial repair provides better pain relief and shoulder function than the partial repair alone. They will follow 105 patients for two years after surgery to measure pain, function, and whether the repair holds up.
