Shoulder Injuries, Shoulder Pain
Conditions
Brief summary
To compare the one year outcomes between 60 year old patients with a three tendon tear treated as part of their standard of care with either a reverse total shoulder arthroplasty or rotator cuff repair surgery.
Detailed description
A retrospective record review will be completed to identify eligible subjects who had either a reverse total shoulder arthroplasty or rotator cuff repair to treat their three tendon tear. Medical record abstraction of standard of care will be completed among the reverse total shoulder arthroplasty cohort. Rotator cuff repair subjects will be contacted with a study invitation and scheduled for a single study visit to collect three patient reported outcomes, assess range of motion and complete a ten-minute magnetic resonance imaging exam following signed consent.
