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
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study looks at how the position and angle of surgical anchors used in rotator cuff repair affect cyst formation and tendon healing. Researchers will use MRI scans to measure cyst volume and assess tendon recovery in 70 adults aged 18–70 undergoing primary arthroscopic repair. The goal is to identify surgical factors that lead to better shoulder function and fewer complications.

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 clear links are found, surgeons may adjust anchor placement to reduce cyst formation and improve tendon healing after rotator cuff repair.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not prove that anchor parameters directly cause better outcomes, and results may not apply to all patients.
