Trial Outcomes & Findings for Compression and Cold Therapy on the Post-Operative Shoulder (NCT NCT00703729)
NCT ID: NCT00703729
Last Updated: 2015-09-10
Results Overview
Pain was measured using a visual analog scale (VAS) 10 cm in length, with "no pain" at the left side of the scale and "extreme pain" at the right side. Scores were measured to the closest millimeter for a 0-100 scale.

Cold Compression (CC)
The Game Ready device provides both active, continuous cold and intermittent, pneumatic compression to the post-op shoulder. The first group will use the Game Ready™ Device (CC) for one week following surgery and will use standard ice bags wrapped to the shoulder (IW) for the remainder of the study period.
Cold Compression (CC): The device is applied to the shoulder within 60 minutes of arrival to the recovery room following surgery. The device will be applied at one hour intervals (60 minutes on the shoulder, 60 minutes off) during waking hours for the first 72 hours after surgery. For the remainder of the study period, therapy will be applied for one hour treatments 2-3 times a day during waking hours.

Ice Wrap (IW): The ice bag is applied to the shoulder within 60 minutes of arrival to the recovery room following surgery. The ice bag is placed on the shoulder and the elastic wrap is used to hold the bag in place. The ice will be applied at one hour intervals (60 minutes on the shoulder, 60 minutes off) during waking hours for the first 72 hours after surgery. For the remainder of the study period, therapy will be applied for one hour treatments 2-3 times a day during waking hours.

The device will be applied at one hour intervals (60 minutes on the shoulder, 60 minutes off) during waking hours for the first 72 hours after surgery. For the remainder of the study period, therapy will be applied for one hour treatments 2-3 times a day during waking hours.
