Summary

The postoperative shoulder rehabilitation in an abduction brace after rotator cuff reconstruction of the shoulder is crucial for a successful healing of the reconstruction.

In this study the investigators want to analyse the abduction brace-wearing time using a electronic sensor, which is implanted in the abduction brace. The participants will be informed about the sensor after completion of the abduction brace rehabilitation 6 weeks postoperatively.

Conditions

  • Rotator Cuff Tear

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Abduction brace wearing time analysis

To evaluate the patient´s abduction brace wearing time a sensor = Orthotimer® (Rollerwerk, 72336 Balingen, Germany, www.orthotimer.com) is implanted in the abduction brace. The sensor measures the body temperature of the patient. Through that the wearing time can be evaluated.
