Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM: Several patient-related factors have been identified which are responsible for the development of rotator cuff tears. The purpose of the study was to assess various parameters which can be risk factors for the development of supraspinatus tendon tear. METHODS: A total of 100 patients with symptomatic rotator cuff tear, aged > 18 years, of either gender, presenting to the outpatient department were included in this cross-sectional study. Magnetic resonance imaging was done and based on its results; patients were identified for the type of tear. Demographic, clinical, and biochemical factors affecting the tears were assessed using logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: Factors such as age, gender, pain radiation, night pain, and analgesic intake had significant association with supraspinatus tendon tears. CONCLUSION: "Pain radiation" and "Analgesic intake" were two new parameters found associated with the supraspinatus tendon tears. New parameters that have been assessed as risk factors will help in better understanding of supraspinatus tendon tears. © Indian Orthopaedics Association 2020.
