No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This single-center, prospective, randomized controlled study will compare patients allocated to two treatment arms who are undergoing surgery to repair rotator cuff tears: (1) arthroscopic rotator cuff reconstruction using fixation with anchors augmented with a synthetic polyester patch, and (2) arthroscopic rotator cuff reconstruction using fixation with anchors and no augmentation with a synthetic polyester patch. The primary objective is to compare complications (primarily retear rates) and the secondary objective is to compare mid- and long-term clinical and radiological outcomes using standard orthopedic assessments, such as the subjective shoulder value and the Constant-Murley score.

Conditions

  • Rotator Cuff Tears

Interventions

DEVICE

Arthroscopic rotator cuff reconstruction using fixation with anchors augmented with a synthetic polyester patch (Pitch-Patch Tissue Reinforcement Device))

The Pitch-Patch is a single-use device intended to reinforce the rotator cuff following or during repair by sutures or suture anchors where weakness exists in the soft tissue.

DEVICE

Arthroscopic rotator cuff reconstruction using fixation with anchors augmented without a synthetic polyester patch

Arthroscopic rotator cuff reconstruction using fixation with anchors and no augmentation with a synthetic polyester patch.
