Satisfaction with the repair and return to work status were ascertained 1 year postoperatively. A subgroup analysis of tear size and patient age was also undertaken.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Of the subjects, 61 (73%) were men, and the average age was 53.2 (\u00b19.9) years. According to repeated-measures analysis of variance, shoulder range of motion (flexion and external rotation) improved significantly from before surgery to 1 year after surgery (P &lt; .001). The mean American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons scores improved from 53.3 (\u00b120.6) preoperatively to 90.6 (\u00b111.7) 1 year postoperatively (P &lt; .001). The mean Western Ontario Rotator Cuff scores also improved from 43.2 (\u00b120.2) preoperatively to 87.2 (\u00b114.3) 1 year postoperatively (P &lt; .001). No differences were seen in either the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons scores or Western Ontario Rotator Cuff scores between the 1-year examination and the last follow-up assessment undertaken at a median of 5 years postoperatively (P &gt; .05). Ninety-six percent of patients were satisfied or very satisfied with the results of their repair; 78% of patients who were working before surgery returned to work without modification by 1 year postoperatively. For the most part, patient age and size of tear did not influence postoperative range of motion or health-related quality of life.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n
