Brief Summary:
The present study addresses the issue about post-surgical recovery process, for patients arthroscopically treated for rotator-cuff tear. The aim of the research is to test the effectiveness of a new rehabilitation protocol that includes kinematic biofeedback with the motion analysis system ISEO.
Detailed Description:
The research includes at least 62 patients arthroscopically treated for the rotator cuff tear. For this purpose, two groups of patients of equal size are identified. The attribution of each patient to one of the two groups is random. The standard rehabilitation protocol is applied to the Control group (Group A), whereas the standard rehabilitation protocol integrated by proprioception exercises (physical therapist assisted) performed with ISEO is applied to the Experimental group (Group B). The primary objective is to verify if the ISEO system, used as a biofeedback tool, improves shoulder functionality and activity of patients arthroscopically treated for rotator cuff tear, both in the short (90 days from surgery) and in the medium term (6-12 months from surgery). All patients are longitudinally evaluated from the pre-surgery to a 6/12 months follow-up. Each evaluation includes both a clinical and an instrumented assessment of shoulder kinematics. The primary outcome tested is the Scapula-Weighted Constant-Murley Score, which represents a reformulation of the Constant-Murley Score, which is modified based on the quality of the scapular movement measured with ISEO.
