NCT05214651

Brief Summary

The study is designed as a randomized controlled trial, a total of 52 participants with large - massive rotator cuff tears will be prospectively enrolled and randomly divided into 2 groups according to the applied repairing technique: novel double row technique group and suture bridge double row technique group. The functional outcome was measured at the preoperatively, 3, 6, 12 and 24 months postoperatively, using the visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, active and passive ROM, Constant score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, and University of California Los Angeles shoulder score (UCLA). The anatomic outcome was evaluated using magnetic resonance imaging at 3, 6, 12 and 24 months postoperatively. The clinical results were compared between the novel double row technique group and suture bridge double row technique group.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The retear rate of large to massive rotator cuff tears

    This study statistically compared the retear rate of large to massive rotator cuff tears treated with suture bridge double row technique with that treated with novel double row technique.

    The incidence of retear during 24 months postoperatively

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • functional scores of the shoulder

    functional scores of the shoulder were assessed at following time points: preoperatively; 3, 6, 12 and 24 months postoperatively

Study Arms (2)

novel double row group

EXPERIMENTAL

This is the experimental group, and 26 participants will be enrolled, a novel double row technique will be using to repair the large - massive rotator cuff tears in in this group.

Procedure: novel double row

suture bridge double row group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

This is the control group, and 26 participants will be enrolled, a suture bridge double row technique will be using to repair the large - massive rotator cuff tears in in this group in routine.

Procedure: suture bridge double row

Interventions

The large - massive rotator cuff tears in in this group will be treated using a novel double row repairing techniques.
