Brief Summary

Rotator cuff (RC) repair is one of the most common treatment approch to relief the pain and improve the shoulder function on patients with rotator cuff rupture. Despite the improved surgical techniques and decreased failure rate, there are still complications after the surgey like shoulder persistant shoulder pain, stiffness even re-tear. Therefore, rehabilitation after the RC repair procedure is crucial for the success of the treatment. However, there is no concencus between the post-operative rehabilitation protochol. The aim of this study is to compare two different rehabilitation protochols on patients with RC repair.

Conditions

Rotator Cuff Tear

Keywords

shoulder; rotator cuff; exercise

Outcome Measures

Study Arms (2)

Hospitalized rehabilitation

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients in this group will recieve rehabilitation program twice in a week at our clinic after the surgical procedure until post-operative 12 weeks.

Other: Hospitalized rehabilitation

Home-based rehabilitation

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients in his groups will performed home-based rehabilitation in the early stages of the post-op period. They will com to our clinic once in a two weeks and the recieve the exercise program to perform at home until the 6. weeks of the post-operative period. After the 6. week they will come to our clinic once in a week until the post-operative 12. week.

Other: Home-based rehabilitation

Interventions

Hospitalized rehabilitation OTHER

Patients will recive a rehabilitation prgram at the clinic twice in a week until the post-operative 12. weeks

Hospitalized rehabilitation

Home-based rehabilitation OTHER

Patients will recive a home program once in a two weeks until the 6. weeks of post-operative period. Then will start to recieve a rehabilitation program ar the clinic once in a week auntil the 12. week of the post-operative period.
