Shoulder recovery device after rotator cuff repair surgery
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether using a special device called H-Wave® after rotator cuff repair surgery helps improve pain and recovery. The device is used at home, and the study looks at how well it works compared to standard care.
