Cold and Compression After Rotator Cuff Repair (RCR)

Официальное название

Cold and Compression After Rotator Cuff Repair or Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair Pain Attenuation: A Randomized, Controlled Trial

Обзор

The purpose of this study is to compare pain score (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System: PROMIS NRS Pain Subscale) between the control and cold/compression groups pre-surgically, daily after surgery for 14 days, then weekly after surgery for 3 months, and at 6 months post-surgery.

Вмешательства

• Другое SOC (Standard of care)
  Patients enrolled in this arm will be discharged with 28 hydrocodone/APAP 7.5 mg pills taken every 6 hours as needed (or its MME equivalent), 1 identical refill if patient calls, and cold therapy (bag of ice or gel pack) Other Name:
• Устройство Cold and Compression
  External mechanical compression therapy (e.g., compression stockings) has been shown to reduce swelling and risk of deep vein thrombosis in the lower limbs following TKA.12,13 Combining advanced cryotherapy (continuous circulating cold flow) and dynamic compression may offer added benefits than either traditional cryotherapy (e.g., cold packs) or compression (e.g., stockings) alone.

• Will receive outpatient physical therapy at OTW Driftwood for the entire post-op rehabilitation period
• English speaking

Критерии исключения

• Chronic opioid use
• Opioid use within the last 3 months
• Diagnosis of inflammatory disease process (i.e., gout, rheumatoid arthritis, systematic lupus erythematosus...)
• Discharge to skilled nursing
• Cold intolerance related to diseases, like Raynaud's
• Significant vascular impairment in the affected region
• Current clinical signs of inflammatory phlebitis, venous ulcers, or cellulitis
• Significant risk factors or current clinical signs of embolism (e.g., pulmonary embolus, pulmonary edema, cerebral infarction, atrial fibrillation, endocarditis, myocardial infarction, or atheromatous embolic plaque)
• A condition in which increased venous or lymphatic return is not desired in the affected extremity (e.g., lymphedema after breast cancer or other local carcinoma and/or carcinoma metastasis in the affected extremity).
• Uncontrolled hypertension (physician discretion), cardiac failure, extreme low blood pressure, or decompensated cardiac insufficiency.
• Localized unstable skin condition (e.g., dermatitis, vein ligation, gangrene, or recent skin graft) in the affected region.
• Had recent toe surgery in the affected region
• Current clinical signs in the affected region of significant peripheral edema (e.g., deep vein thrombosis, chronic venous insufficiency, acute compartment syndrome, systemic venous hypertension, congestive heart failure, cirrhosis/liver failure, renal failure).
• An acute, unstable (untreated) fracture in the affected region.
• Any active local or systemic infection.
• Obtunded or with diabetes mellitus, multiple sclerosis, poor circulation, spinal cord injuries, and rheumatoid arthritis
• Areas of skin breakdown or damage (damaged or at-risk skin) producing uneven heat conduction across the skin (e.g., open wound, scar tissue, burn or skin graft). Any open wound must be dressed prior to use of the Polar Care Wave System.
• Presumptive evidence of congestive heart failure
• Pre-existing DVT condition
• Deep acute venal thrombosis (Phlebothrombosis)
• Episodes of pulmonary embolism
• Pulmonary edema
• Acute inflammation of the veins (Thrombophlebitis)
• Decompensated cardiac insufficiency
• Arterial dysregulation
• Erysipelas
• Carcinoma and carcinoma metastasis in the affected extremity
• Decompensated hypertonia
• Acute inflammatory skin diseases or infection
• Venous or arterial occlusive disease
• Medical situations where increased venous or lymphatic return is undesirable
• Poor peripheral circulation
• Severe arteriosclerosis, or active infection
• Known hematological dyscrasias that predispose to thrombosis (e.g., paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria, cryoglobulinemia, sicklecell disease, serum cold agglutinins).
• Tissues inflamed as a result of recent injury or exacerbation of chronic inflammatory condition.
• Compromised local circulation or neurologic impairment (including paralysis or localized compromise due to multiple surgical procedures or diabetes) in the affected region.
• Cognition or communication impairments that prevent them from giving accurate and timely feedback.
• Cold allergy
• Cold agglutinin disorders like paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria
• Buerger's disease
• Chilblains
• Cryoglobulinemia
• Sickle cell anemia
• Uncontrolled diabetes (physician discretion)
• Hypersensitivity to cold
