Stage 2a IDEAL evaluation of a third-generation biocomposite suture anchor in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair: subgroup cohort analysis of the PRULO registry with 12-month follow up.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Poly-lactic co-glycolide with tricalcium phosphate (PLGA)/β-TCP is both bioactive and biodegradable, and is considered a third generation biomaterial for suture anchors. This study aims to describe the incidence of adverse events and the trajectory of patient-reported outcomes up to 12 months follow up in patients undergoing rotator cuff repair with this type of anchor.

Methods

A sub-group analysis of a prospective registry of a regional private clinic embedded in an orthopaedic clinic was conducted. This study is registered on the Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ACTRN12619000770167) with date 23/05/2019. Patients undergoing surgery from Jun-2020 to Mar-2024 with the Healix Advance BR were identified and data on patient demographics, treatment det
