Abstract
BackgroundThe administration of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to patients is thought to impair rotator cuff healing and clinical outcomes. Methods36 patients who underwent rotator cuff repair were divided into 3 groups based on their post-operative analgesia regimes. ResultsAt 4.4 years postoperative, there was significant improvement in SST and UCLA scores (p < 0.001). There were no significant differences in post-operative clinical outcome scores between the groups (p > 0.05). Administration of NSAIDs and duration of their use did not influence outcomes of rotator cuff repair (p = 0.151). ConclusionNSAIDs has no significant influence on clinical outcomes of rotator cuff repair.
