Sponsor's own description
The incidence of rotator cuff injuries is high, especially among the elderly. With the aging of the population, the number of surgical patients has increased significantly. However, in the early stage after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, a considerable proportion of patients are troubled by shoulder joint stiffness, which greatly affects the quality of life and satisfaction of patients after the operation. Despite this, there is still a lack of clear evidence-based medical evidence regarding whether preventive extensive shoulder release and joint capsule release during arthroscopic rotator cuff repair can effectively prevent or alleviate postoperative shoulder stiffness. To clarify this clinical issue, this project intends to conduct a single-blind randomized controlled trial (RCT). Before the operation, patients will be randomly divided into two groups under blinding conditions: the experimental group will receive arthroscopic rotator cuff repair surgery along with preventive extensive shoulder joint release and joint capsule release, while the control group will only receive arthroscopic rotator cuff repair surgery. After the operation, the investigators will conduct follow-up visits for 3 months, 6 months and 12 months for the two groups of patients, and perform magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at the 12th month to assess the healing of the rotator cuff tendons. ASES score, Constant-Murley score, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) pain score and active range (ROM) assessment were conducted before the operation and at the follow-up at 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after the operation. The occurrence of postoperative complications of the patients was counted at the last follow-up. Through this study, the investigators expect to provide scientific and effective guidance for the prevention of postoperative adhesions of the shoulder joint.
