Suture Anchor Comparison in Rotator Cuff Repairs

Inclusion Criteria: * Male or female, aged 35 to 75 years at the time of surgery. * Willing and able to give voluntary informed consent to participate in this investigation. * Full thickness tear of the rotator cuff * Tear requires repair within one year of initial diagnosis. * Tear must be anatomically repairable (must be able to get tendon back to the medial position on the footprint and at least back to the tuberosity). * Willing and able, in the opinion of the Investigator, to cooperate with study procedures, and willing to return to study site for all required post-operative study visits. Exclusion Criteria: * Evidence of acute trauma including fracture or dislocation of the shoulder joint. * Chronic retraction. * Evidence of active infection, osteomyelitis, sepsis or distant infection, which could spread to the index joint. * Subject has had previous rotator cuff, arthroplasty or fracture procedures on the operative shoulder. * Subject has had acromioplasty or diagnostic arthroscopy on the operative shoulder within one (1) year prior to scheduled surgery date. * Evidence of osteomalacia or other metabolic bone disorder(s), which may impair bone or soft tissue function. * Evidence of other significant shoulder pathology including (Type II-IV lesion, Bankart lesion, Hill Sachs lesion). * Patient has grade 4 changes to articular cartilage in operative shoulder * Inflammatory arthropathies. * Significant muscle paralysis of the shoulder girdle. * Painful pathologies of the cervical spine. * Comminuted bone surface, which would compromise secure anchor fixation. * Non-surgical rotator cuff associated treatment, such as corticosteroid injection, within one (1) month prior to scheduled surgery date. * Participating in another investigational trial or ongoing study that would interfere with the assessment of the primary and secondary outcomes. * Female patient who is pregnant, nursing, or of childbearing potential while not practicing effective contraceptive methods. * Major psychiatric illness, developmental handicap or inability to read and understand the English language. * Major medical illness that would preclude undergoing surgery. * Known to be involved in any active injury litigation claims relating to the study shoulder. * Unwilling or unable to be assessed according to study protocol for two years following surgery. * Patient requires a concomitant SLAP repair procedure in operative shoulder. * Surgeon plans to use a Platelet Rich Plasma product or another therapy intended to augment healing of the rotator cuff in the study procedure. * Protocol specified surgical technique cannot be followed for this subject. * Rotator cuff repair will be done via open (as opposed to arthroscopic) procedure. * Any other reason (in the judgment of the investigator).
