NCT02725320

Brief Summary

The overall purpose of this work is to use a prospective cohort study to examine patient-specific but shoulder-extrinsic factors and how they influence the results of rotator cuff surgery. There are undoubtedly many factors that play a role in patient outcome, however, this project will focus on three: the effect of gender on outcome, the effect of mood disorders and coping style on outcome, and the effect of patient height and reach on outcome after rotator cuff surgery. It is hypothesized that these factors will have a significant influence over outcomes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Western Ontario Rotator Cuff score (WORC)

    WORC scores will be compared at 12 months between the groups (males versus females)

    1 year

Secondary Outcomes (14)

  • Overall change in WORC (male versus female)

    1 year

  • Rate of change in WORC (male versus female)

    1 year

  • Rate of change in visual analogue scale (VAS) (male versus female)

    1 year

  • Rate of change in SF-36 (short-form 36) response scores (male versus female)

    1 year

  • Rate of change of satisfaction with surgical outcome (male versus female)

    1 year

  • +9 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Female Rotator Cuff Surgical Group

Females, 35-75 receiving surgery for predominantly unilateral rotator cuff syndrome

Male Rotator Cuff Surgical Group

Males, 35-75 receiving surgery for predominantly unilateral rotator cuff syndrome

Study Population

The participants for this study will be selected from the practice of three shoulder reconstruction surgeons in their embedded clinical research practice.

You may qualify if:

  • Referred for surgical treatment of predominantly unilateral rotator cuff syndrome

You may not qualify if:

  • unable to speak or read English
  • unable to complete 12 month follow-up
  • significant cervicogenic arm and shoulder pain in the affected arm
  • significant chronic pain diagnoses felt at least as likely to be the cause of the symptoms as the rotator cuff condition as evaluated by the surgeon
