Rotator Cuff Injury

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection, made from a participant's own blood, can help heal the tendon and improve shoulder symptoms in people with partial tears of the supraspinatus tendon. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does PRP help the tendon heal? * Does PRP improve pain, shoulder movement, daily function, and shoulder magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings? Researchers will compare PRP plus standard of care (physical therapy) to standard of care alone to see if PRP leads to better healing and better clinical results. Researchers will also study if differences in specific biomolecules in PRP are associated with differences in treatment response. Participants will: * receive standard of care treatment, with or without PRP injection depending on the study group * have blood collected for PRP preparation * have their pain, shoulder movement, and shoulder function assessed * undergo shoulder MRI scans * be followed over time to measure healing and symptom improvement

This study investigates sleep quality in patients with Rotator Cuff Syndrome (RCS) undergoing physical therapy treatment. Existing literature presents a gap regarding longitudinal studies evaluating the impact of physical therapy and different sleeping positions on sleep quality within this specific population. The central hypothesis is that physical therapy, combined with guidance on the best sleeping positions, reduces pain, improves shoulder function, and consequently promotes an improvement in sleep quality for RCS patients over time. The justification for this research lies in the need to better understand the relationship between physical therapy and sleep quality in RCS patients, aiming for the development of more effective and less invasive interventions. Previous studies have demonstrated that chronic pain, a common symptom of RCS, is intrinsically linked to sleep disturbances, which can lead to deleterious effects such as dopamine reduction, alterations in the descending pain modulation system, and central sensitization. Improvements in sleep quality have been observed after surgical procedures such as shoulder arthroscopy and arthroplasty, often associated with improved function and pain reduction. Thus, this study seeks to longitudinally evaluate whether physical therapy is capable of promoting a sustained improvement in sleep quality for patients with RCS

Rotator cuff surgery is an increasingly popular procedure in France. It is a common procedure for patients with shoulder tendon injuries, aimed at restoring mobility and reducing pain. Although arthroscopic techniques have improved functional outcomes, managing postoperative pain, particularly at night, and its consequences remains a major challenge. Studies highlight that postoperative nighttime pain can significantly affect sleep quality, delaying functional recovery and patient satisfaction. However, standard splints used for postoperative immobilization do not offer an optimal solution to this problem, leaving a significant gap in the care of these patients. Given this observation, a splint incorporating a support cushion system could meet the specific needs expressed by patients who have undergone rotator cuff surgery, namely improving sleep quality by minimizing nighttime pain. This splint, called the "Pillow Brace," was developed internally at the Jouvenet Clinic. It therefore does not have CE marking. Nevertheless, this study is based on the hypothesis that the use of a "Pillow Brace" could significantly improve sleep quality compared to standard splints, thus making a significant contribution to orthopedic medicine, postoperative rehabilitation, and patient quality of life.

The overall objective of this clinical investigation is to assess the safety and efficacy of full-thickness arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs augmented with the FiberLocker System for the subjects. The primary outcome of the investigation is to assess the safety after full-thickness arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs augmented with the FiberLocker System in terms of postoperative adverse events through the 12-month follow-up. Main secondary outcomes include measures of efficacy and clinical performance evaluated at 6-week, 4.5-month, and 12-month follow-ups including retear rate assessed using MRI and different functional performance scores.

Postoperative delirium is a delirium that occurs within 7 days after surgery or before hospital discharge. It has been shown that combined POD can increase the incidence of postoperative pulmonary infections, deep vein thrombosis and decubitus ulcers, and increase the incidence of disability and mortality. The incidence of postoperative delirium in geriatric orthopedics is high. Investigators conduct a prospective clinical study on geriatric orthopedic surgery patients to investigate the effect of oxytocin nasal spray on the prevention of postoperative delirium in geriatric orthopedic surgery. Cases were included according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and induction, maintenance and resuscitation were performed according to the standard protocol for general anesthesia. Before the end of surgery, the Investigators administered oxytocin nasal spray (Oxytocin) that was 3 sprays in each nostril (4 IU each) for a total of 24 IU. Beginning 1 day postoperatively, administer 24 IU of oxytocin nasal spray 2 times/day in the morning and in the evening. Until 7 days after surgery or discharge. The sample size are 77 cases in phase I and 143 cases in phase 2, total 220 cases.

The goal of this crossover randomized clinical trial is to compare the acute effect on exercise-induced hypoalgesia (EIH) between isometric exercise with blood flow restriction (BFR) and isometric exercise alone in adults undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. It is presumed that the addition of BFR to isometric exercises induces a greater effect in EIH. Patients who agree to participate in this research will be randomly assigned to two intervention sequences (AB or BA), where intervention A (experimental) corresponds to isometric exercises with BFR, and intervention B (control) corresponds to isometric exercises alone. For one week, each participant attended two sessions, separated by a 72-hours wash-out period. The primary variables will be the pressure pain threshold (PPT) and conditioned pain modulation (CPM). Secondary variables will be the pain intensity and distribution, kinesiophobia, upper extremity disability, and quality of life. Results will be measured before intervention (T1, pre-intervention), immediate after intervention (T2, post-intervention 1) and 10 minutes after intervention (T3, post-intervention 2).

The aim of this study is to compare the clinical results and complications of self-locking biceps tenodesis and double 360 lasso loop biceps tenodesis for the treatment of long chief of biceps or superior labrum anterior-posterior (SLAP) tendon pathology during shoulder arthroscopy in patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Currently, there is no consensus on the use of tenodesis versus tenotomy to treat pathology of the long head of the biceps during arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Numerous studies have examined the clinical results of long biceps tenotomy versus long biceps tenodesis, and there is no evidence to date of superiority of either technique. At Clinique Générale, we use a new, innovative technique called autobloc tenodesis to treat pathologies of the long head of the biceps. There are no comparative studies between autobloc tenodesis of the biceps and biceps tenodesis. Given its potential advantages, self-locking biceps tenodesis could emerge as the new technique of choice for treating biceps longus tendon pathology, potentially reducing differences in outcomes such as Popeye deformity. The information provided by this study could potentially guide future clinical practice, helping surgeons to choose the most appropriate treatment for their patients suffering from long biceps tendon pathology.

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of postoperative standard exercises with blood flow restriction therapy (BFRT) versus standard exercises alone on shoulder muscle strength and mass in participants with surgically treated rotator cuff tear. It is presumed that the addition of BFRT will significantly improve the shoulder strength and muscle mass at the end of the intervention period compared to the group receiving only standard exercises. Patients who agree to participate in this research will be randomly assigned to a control group (standard exercises alone) or an experimental group (standard rehabilitation with BFRT). The duration of the postoperative intervention will be 12 weeks. The primary variables will be the shoulder muscle strength and muscle mass. Secondary variables will be the active shoulder mobility, pain intensity, upper limb disability, and health-related quality of life. Results will be measured at 0, 4 and 12 weeks postoperative.
