Active clinical trials for "Rotator Cuff Injuries"

This will be a randomized controlled trial to determine if postoperative ibuprofen after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair impacts postoperative opiate medication use, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain scores, shoulder range of motion (ROM), and repair integrity.

The project aims to evaluate the contribution of texture analysis on MRI sections, and the technical feasibility, reproducibility, and clinical relevance of quantitative ultrasound and elastography to characterize the composition and volume of infraspinatus muscle in postero-superior rotator cuff tears. The perspectives are to optimize the imaging to allow a quantitative, objective and reproducible analysis of the muscle tissue and its characteristics.

The objective of this study is to determine if a pillow sleep aid improves sleep quality in the short term for patients who have shoulder pain from a rotator cuff injury and are being managed non-operatively.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate clinical outcomes, structural integrity, and tendon organization after rotator cuff repair with and without subacromial bursa implantation and to further co-existing research studies performed at The University Of Texas Health Science Center of Houston (UT Health) on Ultrashort Time to Echo-Magnetic Imaging Resonance(UTE-MRI) techniques and their implication for rotator cuff analysis.

The addition of adrenaline to the arthroscopic irrigation serum is used during rotator cuff surgery to limit intraoperative bleeding and ensure a clear view. Two concentrations of adrenaline are commonly used in practice: 1mg/L or 0.33 mg/L. The aim of this study is to determine which of these two doses provides better clarity of the surgical field with less impact on the patient's cardiovascular parameters.

The study is to investigate the dose-response relationship between load-induced muscle activation (liMA) and load-induced glenohumeral translation (liTr) in patients with rotator cuff tears and asymptomatic control subjects. Furthermore the study is to investigate the in vivo dose-response relationship between additional weight and glenohumeral translation, to understand the biological variation in liTr, the influence of disease pathology on the liTr, the potential compensation by muscle activation and muscle size, and the influence of liTr on patient outcomes.

To compare bridging reconstruction to superior capsular reconstruction using human dermal allograft augmentation for repair of massive rotator cuff tears.

To determine if different techniques used in the creation of suture anchor socket creation can influence post-op pain following rotator cuff repair.

The proposed study is a prospective, single-blinded, randomized trial to investigate the impact of humeral component version on shoulder range of motion and patient reported functional outcomes following reverse total shoulder arthroplasty.

This is a longitudinal follow-up study of the RC-002 study, in which up to 246 subjects assigned to two randomization arms will be enrolled: an adipose-derived regenerative cell (ADRC) injection arm (ADRC treatment arm) and the SOC corticosteroid injection arm (active control arm). All subjects will be randomly assigned to ADRC treatment or active control arms in a 2:1 ratio and will be followed up for 6 months. The goal of the RC-004 study is to enroll all patients that were enrolled and treated in RC-002 and follow for 3 years.
