- Registration Number
- NCT04416932
- Lead Sponsor
- Duke University
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study would be to evaluate a group of patients status post post-total shoulder arthroplasty to assess the integrity of the rotator cuff using ultrasound. We believe ultrasonography imaging to be a comparable and efficacious modality to evalute tenotomy healing rates and diagnose rotator cuff failure after total shoulder arthroplasty. In addition, we believe ultrasonography to be a cost-effective modality to asses the rotator cuff after total shoulder arthroplasty. Our population would consist of patients that received total shoulder arthroplasty within the last 5 years.
