Primary outcomePrimary: Western Ontario Rotator Cuff Index — 72.9; 79.9 score on a scale (0-100)
Summary
The purpose of this prospective database is to investigate the long-term functional status of patients who have undergone various types of rotator cuff repair surgery. Patients are asked to respond to questionnaires prior to surgery and at various post-operative visits in an attempt to quantify their functional outcomes. Responses are then linked to other data such as symptoms, prior treatments, previous surgery, complications, radiographic results, etc. These data may then be used as a basis for devising guidelines for future patients and surgeons. This particular project is interested in investigating long term results of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair techniques.
