简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine whether minimally invasive treatments like ultrasound guided needle fragmentation with and without lavage is associated with better clinical outcomes compared to the subacromial bursal corticosteroid injection treatment only.
详细描述
The objectives of this study are to compare the clinical outcomes of the three treatment arms: ultrasound guided needle fragmentation with lavage, ultrasound guided needle fragmentation without lavage, and subacromial bursal corticosteroid injection treatment. The study design is a randomized control trial.

结局指标
主要结局
Decrease in Pain as measured by the Visual analog scale from 1-10
时间窗: 8 months
Pain in the original symptomatic area of the rotator cuff will be reassessed using the visual analog scale from 1-10 (1 being the lowest pain and 10 being the highest)
Decreased Range of Motion in the shoulder measured in degrees
时间窗: 8 months
Abduction, internal rotation, external rotation and circumduction of the shoulder
次要结局
- Costs and health resource utilization as measured by administrative and billing data related to treatment(Up to 8-12 months post surgery)
- Complications and co existing conditions not detected prior to the procedure(Post ultrasound guided procedure through completion of study, up to one year)
- Generic physical and mental health as measured by EuroQol(Up to 8-12 months post surgery)
- The ultrasound appearance of the targeted calcification(Up to 8-12 months post surgery)
