The purpose of this study is to identify, at 5 years, the clinical and therapeutic factors associated with improvement in shoulder functionality and quality of life in patients with transfixing (total) rotator cuff injuries undergoing treatment.
This is a non-interventional, prospective, longitudinal, multicentre cohort study. The research procedure involves recruiting patients during their first consultation for the management of a rotator cuff injury. Patients will then be contacted by telephone or e-mail every year to monitor the progress of their disease and their treatment. Patients will be asked to complete self-questionnaires assessing shoulder function, quality of life and satisfaction.
