What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study will follow 50 adults having arthroscopic rotator cuff repair to see if a condition called central sensitization—where the nervous system is overly sensitive to pain—affects their recovery. Before surgery and 3 months after, researchers will measure pain and shoulder function using standard questionnaires. The goal is to understand whether central sensitization leads to worse outcomes, which could help tailor care in the future.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If this study finds a link, it could help doctors predict which patients might have worse pain or slower recovery after rotator cuff surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early observational study with only 50 people. It cannot prove cause and effect, and results may not apply to everyone.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The study population will consist of adult patients aged 18-65 years with a rotator cuff tear confirmed by clinical examination and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) who are scheduled to undergo arthroscopic rotator cuff repair at the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology of a single tertiary care center. Eligible patients who meet the inclusion criteria and provide written informed consent will be consecutively enrolled. Preoperative and postoperative clinical evaluations, including assessment of central sensitization, pain, and shoulder function, will be performed according to the study protocol.
