From Rotator Cuff Repair to Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty - Clinical and Radiological Results

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Procedure
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY

In the planned study the investigators will invite 733 participants 10 years after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair to a follow up examination. Shoulder pain is a common problem in the Norwegian population. Rotator cuff tear is a major cause of shoulder pain with a reported prevalence of up to 51% in patients 60-80 years of age. Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair is performed in an increasing proportion of these patients. Good results in shoulder function has been reported, although there is a lack in published good quality studies and long term follow up of these patients. There is also a lack of evidence regarding the association between radiologically-verified re-tear and clinical outcome. In this project, the investigators address these critical gaps in knowledge and aim to investigate the factors influencing the clinical outcome after rotator cuff surgery and re-tear in a large prospective cohort study. The investigators will investigate how many participants suffering from poor outcome and develop cuff arthropathy in need of reverse shoulder arthroplasty after 10 years.
