Summary

POWER is a pragmatic multi-centre, external pilot randomised controlled trial with feasibility objectives using a parallel group design with 1:1 allocation ratio and integrated qualitative study. The study aims to answer the question: In adult patients diagnosed with tears of the rotator cuff and awaiting elective surgical repair, is it feasible to conduct a future, fully powered, multi-site RCT to test the hypothesis that physiotherapist-led exercise is superior to waiting-list control in terms of clinical and cost-effectiveness?
