Effect of PRP vs Corticosteroid in Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy Subtypes in Arthroscopic Repair

Effect of Platelet-Rich Plasma vs Corticosteroid Injection in Distinct Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy Subtypes in Arthroscopic Repair: a Multicenter, Three-group, Randomized Controlled Trial

Prospective, multicenter, randomized, single-blinded, parallel group，placebo-controlled，three-group establishment of specific treatment regimen for subtypes of tendinopathy

This clinical trial uses machine learning to match molecular and clinical features，so as to establish a "rapid recognition system of tendinopathy subtypes" and compares the clinical effects of corticosteroid，platelet rich plasma or placebo on different subtypes of tendinopathy.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Rotator cuff tears were diagnosis by magnetic resonance imaging or arthroscopy
• Surgical intervention of rotator cuff tears was proposed.
• Simple full-layer tear of supraspinatus tendon.
• Patients give informed consent, and sign the informed consent form, and the process must meet the requirements of GCP

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients with rotator cuff injuries involving infraspinatus, subscapularis, and teres minor tendon injuries
• Patients platelet concentration is lower than 100×109

• Patients have participated in clinical trials or are conducting other clinical trials within 3 months before screening.
• Patients have severe primary cardiovascular disease, lung disease, endocrine and metabolic disease or serious diseases that affect their survival, such as tumor or AIDS, the researchers believe that it is not suitable to be selected.
• Patients have severe liver, kidney and hematological lesions, such as kidney function exceeding the upper limit of normal value and liver function exceeding 2 times the upper limit of normal value.
• Patients have viral hepatitis, infectious diseases, severe abnormalities in blood coagulation and other diseases that the researchers consider unsuitable for surgery.
