About this study

Official title: Prospective Randomized Controled Study on the Outcome of Greenhouse Tec in the Arthroscopic Treatment of Small and Medium Rotator Cuff Tear

This study is aprospective cohort study on the outcome of a combination of bone marrow stimulation and modified suture bridge in the arthroscopic treatment of small and medium rotator cuff tear. The patients with small to medium rotator cuff injuries (less than 3cm in diameter) requiring arthroscopic surgery were collected. The patients were followed up before and 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after surgery, including pain, functional score, joint range of motion, MRI and CT findings, complications and other quantitative and qualitative indicators. The self-control and intra group analysis were performed to evaluate the treatment effect; and the correlation analysis was performed on the treatment results To determine the important factors affecting the therapeutic effect.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • The combination of bone marrow stimulation and modified suture bridge(Greenhouse tec)Procedure or surgery

    According to the anteroposterior diameter of the injury, single or double high braided thread were used to suture the tendon in a modified Mason Allen way without knotting. Bone marrow stimulation was carried out in the footprint area of rotator cuff. A 2.0 mm diameter cone was created with a depth of 1 cm and a spacing of 5 mm. Six to eight holes were made due to the diameter of the tear of rotator cuff until blood and fat droplets exudate. Then the threads were passed through the locking eyelet of the lateral row anchor. After tightening the threads, the anchor was screwed in at the distal part of the gteater tuberosity. With this new technique, the rotator cuff was repaired by one lateral row anchor without medial row knotting.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bone Marrow Stimulating and Modified Suture Bridge, run by Beijing Jishuitan Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Feb 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons'Form,ASES score (time frame: 1 year postoperatively). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Feb 2024.
