(b)(4).It was further assessed that the pain was due to rotator cuff tear, therefore, this is a not reportable event as the device did not cause or contribute to the reported event.The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that surround the shoulder joint, keeping the head of the humerus firmly within the shallow socket of the shoulder.Rotator cuff injuries occur most often in people who repeatedly perform overhead motions or experience any sort of trauma to the shoulder.Degenerative tears can also occur because of gradual wearing down of the tendon.This degeneration naturally occurs as we age.Factors that lead to degenerative tears include repetitive stress, lack of blood supply, bone spurs, and increased age.Common symptoms of a rotator cuff tear include pain at rest or with activity, weakness, and crepitus.Typically, an anatomic shoulder is performed when the rotator cuff is stable and intact, and a reverse shoulder is performed for an insufficient rotator cuff.
