Abstract:
BACKGROUND:At present, it remains unclear whether delayed functional exercises after arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs could elevate the healing rate of tendon. The opportunity of functional exercises after rotator cuff repairs is stil controversial, and there is no relevant system evaluation.
OBJECTIVE:To systematical y evaluate the differences in curative effects of early and delayed functional exercises after arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs.
METHODS:We searched the Pubmed, EMBASE, Cochrane Central Register of Control ed Clinical Trials, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, Wanfang Data, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Chongqing VIP Database. The key words were“arthroscopy, rotator cuff, rehabilitation”. The references of the included literatures were re-retrieved. The deadline of retrieval was August 15, 2012. The included literatures were randomized control ed trials on early and delayed functional exercises after arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs. Methodological quality evaluation, screening and heterogeneous test were conducted. REVMAN5.1 software was utilized to analyze the extracted data.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:We included three randomized control ed trials, including 237 patients:119 in the early movement group and 118 in the delayed movement group. During fol ow-up at 1 year after operation, no significant differences in range of motion, pain degree, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Scale, Simple Should Test scores and re-tear rate of rotator cuff were detected between the two groups. Results confirmed that compared with delayed functional exercises, early functional exercises after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair did not have advantages on the improvement of joint function and range of motion, but also did not negatively affect cuff healing. Postoperative rehabilitation can be modified to ensure patient’s compliance.
