About

This study is a prospective cohort study and is a single-center clinical trial. Sample: This study will enroll about 22 patients from the Department of Sports Medicine and rehabilitation outpatient department of Beijing Third Hospital who are diagnosed with rotator cuff tear and choose conservative treatment.

Full description

A single-center randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted to compare the effect of ESWT combined with conventional rehabilitation training on patients with rotator cuff tear. To explore the effect of ESWT on the clinical efficacy of patients with rotator cuff tear, and to explore the application of shockwave technology in the conservative treatment of rotator cuff tear. It provides a new treatment idea for patients with rotator cuff tear who choose conservative treatment, promotes tendon healing for patients with partial rotator cuff tear, improves shoulder joint function, and provides a new treatment plan for patients to accelerate their return to life and exercise, and provides a theoretical basis for the clinical application of ESWT.
