Summary

The main objective of the study is to determine whether tight management of patients in early rotator cuff tendinopathy would lead to better clinical improvement than standard management. In a randomized study, we propose to compare two types of management, with a tight control group having one consultation per month for the first 3 months, in order to readapt or intensify management, whereas the control group will only be seen at 3 months after inclusion. We hypothesize that this close follow-up will lead to more rapid clinical improvement and reduce the transition to chronicity and the associated costs (inclusion of a medico-economic analysis taking into account, in particular, healthcare consumption and time off work).
