A Systematic Review published in 2021 in the journal Journal of Korean Medicine Rehabilitation found that Acupuncture appears to have positive effects in pain relief and functional recovery after rotator cuff surgery. The research method applied to this study involved a comprehensive search of key terms like 'rotator cuff surgery' and 'acupuncture' across ten databases. The focus was on finding suitable randomized controlled trials to study. Once these trials were identified, they were thoroughly analyzed to assess the therapeutic effects of acupuncture after rotator cuff surgery.
The subsequent in-depth analysis of six select randomized controlled trials revealed the positive effect of acupuncture on patients who had undergone rotator cuff surgery. This acupuncture treatment seems beneficial in terms of providing pain relief and aiding in functional recovery of patients post-surgery. Notably, there's mention of a high overall risk of bias in these analyzed trials.
