Summary
This study looks at whether a faster rehabilitation program (no sling) works better than the standard program (sling for 6 weeks) after rotator cuff repair surgery. About 50 adults over 40 with a torn rotator cuff will be randomly assigned to one of the two recovery plans. The main goal is to see which group has better shoulder function and healing at 6 months after surgery.
