Project description:ObjectiveTo develop and user test a patient decision aid for people with subacromial pain syndrome that presents evidence-based information on the benefits and harms of subacromial decompression surgery and rotator cuff repair surgery.DesignMixed-methods study outlining the development of a patient decision aid.SettingWe assembled a multidisciplinary steering group, and used existing decision aids and decision science to draft the decision aid. Participants were recruited through social media (not restricted by country nor setting), local hospitals and the authors' collaboration network.ParticipantsPeople with shoulder pain and health professionals who manage people with shoulder pain.Primary and secondary outcomesWe interviewed participants to gather feedback on the decision aid, assessed useability and acceptability (using qualitative and quantitative methods) and performed iterative cycles of redrafting the decision aid and reinterviewing participants as necessary. Interview data were analysed using thematic analysis. Quantitative data were summarised descriptively.ResultsWe interviewed 26 health professionals (11 physiotherapists, 7 orthopaedic surgeons, 4 general practitioners, 3 chiropractors and 1 osteopath) and 14 people with shoulder pain. Most health professionals and people with shoulder pain rated all aspects of decision aid acceptability as adequate-to-excellent (eg, length, presentation, comprehensibility). Interviews highlighted agreement among health professionals and people with shoulder pain on most aspects of the decision aid (eg, treatment options, summary of benefits, harms and practical issues, questions to ask a health professional, graphics, formatting). However, some aspects of the decision aid elicited divergent views among health professionals (eg, causes and symptoms of shoulder pain, evidence on benefits and harms).ConclusionThis decision aid could be an acceptable and valuable tool for helping people with subacromial pain syndrome make informed treatment choices. A randomised controlled trial evaluating whether this decision aid reduces people's intentions to undergo shoulder surgery and facilitates informed treatment choices is underway.Trial registration number ACTRN12621000992808.

Project description:Rotator cuff repairs have a high failure rate proportional to the tear size. Various techniques have been described to improve the repair strength and failure rate. The described surgical technique uses a biodegradable subacromial balloon-shaped spacer (InSpace; OrthoSpace, Caesarea, Israel) that is implanted arthroscopically to protect our tendon repair. We describe the introduction technique and suggest some hints and tricks. The spacer is placed under direct vision in the subacromial space after the rotator cuff repair is finished. Correct placement is verified by moving the arm freely. The subacromial spacer may help to protect the rotator cuff repair by centering the humeral head and reducing friction between suture knots and the acromion. It may also help to flatten dog-ear formations.

Project description:Rotator cuff tears can be associated with significant shoulder dysfunction and pain. Despite improved surgical techniques and new materials for rotator cuff reconstruction, there is no significant reduction in the re-rupture rate. Innovative approaches for enhanced tendon healing are required. The potential of biologically optimized tendon integration has probably been insufficiently explored so far. The existing practice of debridement might eliminate repair tissue and a major source of cells and blood vessels necessary for tendon healing. Biological augmentation may be an option to improve the healing process. The subacromial bursa is a highly proliferative tissue with mesenchymal stem cells capable of differentiating into various cell lines and is easily accessible during rotator cuff repair. We describe the technique of bursal augmentation in arthroscopic double-row SutureBridge repair of a posterosuperior rotator cuff tear with the aim of improving tendon-to-bone healing.

Project description:ObjectiveTo compare the effectiveness of ultrasound guided corticosteroid injection in the subacromial bursa with systemic corticosteroid injection in patients with rotator cuff disease.DesignDouble blind randomised clinical trial.SettingOutpatient clinic of a physical medicine and rehabilitation department in Oslo, Norway. Patients 106 patients with rotator cuff disease lasting at least three months.InterventionsUltrasound guided corticosteroid and lidocaine injection in the subacromial bursa and lidocaine injection in the gluteal region (local group); corticosteroid and lidocaine injection in the gluteal region and ultrasound guided lidocaine injection in the subacromial bursa (systemic group).Main outcome measuresDifference in improvement in the overall shoulder pain and disability index score after six weeks.ResultsSix weeks after the intervention, the mean difference in improvement in overall shoulder pain and disability index score between the local group and the systemic group was -5.2 (95% confidence interval -13.9 to 3.5); it was -4.1 (-12.3 to 4.1, P=0.32) after adjustment for baseline score. A small but statistically significant difference in improvement between groups occurred in favour of the local group for two secondary outcome measures: the Western Ontario rotator cuff index (8.1, 0.7 to 15.6) and change in main complaint (2.0, 0 to 4).ConclusionsNo important differences in short term outcomes were found between local ultrasound guided corticosteroid injection and systemic corticosteroid injection in rotator cuff disease.Trial registrationClinical trials NCT00640575.

Project description:BackgroundSynovitis of the glenohumeral (GH) joint and the subacromial (SA) space is commonly observed during arthroscopic rotator cuff surgery.PurposeTo investigate the distribution, severity, and clinical implications of synovitis in the GH joint and SA space in patients with a full-thickness rotator cuff tear (RCT).Study designCase series; Level of evidence, 4.MethodsData were retrospectively collected from 207 patients with a full-thickness RCT who underwent arthroscopic repair. Preoperative parameters used in the clinical assessment included pain, range of motion (ROM), muscle strength, and functional scores. Macroscopic assessment of synovitis was performed intraoperatively in the 3 regions of interest (ROIs) of the GH joint and 4 ROIS of the SA space using an evaluation system. The distribution and severity of synovitis and the association between synovitis and clinical assessment were evaluated.ResultsSynovitis was more severe in the GH joint than in the SA space (P < .001). Synovitis in the posterior GH joint and the lateral SA space, where most of the rotator cuff was located, was the most severe area among the ROIs of the GH joint and the SA space, respectively (P < .05). All types of pain, except for pain at rest, were associated with synovitis in the posterior GH joint (P < .05). All ROM measures were associated with synovitis in the posterior and inferior GH joint (|r| > 0.20; P < .05 for both). The strength of the supraspinatus and the infraspinatus was associated with synovitis in the posterior GH joint (P < .05). Shoulder function was associated with synovitis in the posterior and inferior GH joint and more in the posterior GH joint (P < .05 for both). Synovitis in the SA space was not associated with any of the clinical parameters.ConclusionSynovitis in the posterior GH joint was the most severe form of synovitis in the GH joint in patients with a full-thickness RCT. Synovitis in the posterior GH joint was closely associated with increased pain and decreased ROM, muscle strength, and functional score. Synovitis in the SA space was milder and not associated with any clinical parameters.

Project description:Massive, irreparable rotator cuff tears are a source of pain and disability. Although most rotator cuff tears can be completely repaired, a significant number are considered massive and irreparable. Numerous operative techniques have been described for the treatment of these kinds of tears including arthroscopic debridement, biceps tenotomy, tendon transfer, grafting, and reverse arthroplasty. We describe a surgical technique using a biodegradable subacromial balloon spacer (InSpace; OrthoSpace, Kfar Saba, Israel) implanted between the humeral head and acromion that permits smooth, frictionless gliding, restoring the shoulder biomechanics. The technique is easy to perform and is less invasive than the conventional surgical techniques available, and it may potentially serve as a bridging option in patients with massive, irreparable tears who are normally candidates for reverse arthroplasty.

Project description:Failure of rotator cuff repair surgery can be attributed to a variety of factors, including insufficient biologic environment to support healing. The subacromial bursal tissue has been shown to have a reservoir of mesenchymal stem cells and is a potential source for biologic augmentation during rotator cuff repair. We have developed a technique to capture the subacromial bursal tissue during subacromial bursectomy and then reimplant the tissue on the bursal surface of the rotator cuff tendon after rotator cuff repair. Our goal is to describe our technique of subacromial tissue collection and reimplantation that obviates the need of suturing a whole sleeve of bursal tissue while improving cell yield for rotator cuff healing.

Project description:Despite the development of various therapeutic options, surgical management of irreparable rotator cuff tears (IRCTs) remains controversial. Recently, implantation of a biodegradable subacromial balloon spacer (InSpace, Stryker Corporation; Kalamazoo, MI) has gained considerable interest for the treatment of certain IRCTs. The reported outcome of balloon implantation has not been consistent, likely due to differing indications and technical approaches. The purpose of this article is to present a reproducible arthroscopic technique for implantation of a subacromial balloon and to review the literature published to date, regarding the efficacy and outcomes of this procedure. Technique Video Video 1 Detailed surgical steps of the technique described with a voiceover. The video demonstrates an arthroscopic technique for implantation of a subacromial balloon spacer (InSpace, Stryker Corporation, Kalamazoo, MI). The patient is in the beach chair position with a right-sided operative shoulder. The primary viewing portal is posterior, and the main working portal is lateral. After a routine diagnostic arthroscopy, the subacromial space is prepared with an arthroscopic shaver. The balloon is then sized and implanted through the lateral portal under direct visualization from the posterior portal. Finally, the subacromial balloon spacer (InSpace, Stryker Corporation) system is again highlighted.

Project description:Unsuccessful outcomes after repair of massive rotator cuff ruptures accompanied by muscle atrophy and fatty degeneration are frequently associated with inadequate management and secondary tears. We report the functional differences after rotator cuff rupture repair with a biodegradable spacer application. In these patients, rotator cuff rupture repair should provide coverage of the humeral head. Subsequently, acromioplasty should be performed to allow adequate space for the subacromial spacer. Thereafter measurement of the intra-articular space required for application of the biodegradable spacer is performed. Using this method can decrease the rate of tears by providing a safe subacromial space in cases of massive rotator cuff rupture.
