Shoulder brace study for clavicle fractures or rotator cuff tears
This study tests how wearing a shoulder brace affects joint movement and coordination in people with clavicle fractures or severe rotator cuff tears, compared to healthy volunteers. It may help understand the best ways to immobilize the shoulder after injury.
