Restoring the Anatomic Tension Relationship of the Long Head of the Biceps During Tenodesis
NCT06571695 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the clinical impact of restoring the anatomic-tension relationship of the long head of the biceps (LHB) when performing a biceps tenotomy and tenodesis. The main question it aims to answer is whether anatomic tensioning will improve functional outcome scores and decrease postoperative complications. The investigators hypothesize that through a standardized method of anatomically tensioning the LHB tendon during tenodesis, patient outcomes will improve. Researchers will compare these outcomes to a control group receiving the traditional tensioning technique. Participants will be randomized to either the anatomic tensioning treatment group or the traditional tensioning control group.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06571695
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06571695 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 204 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Loyola University, which has 57 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 3 conditions, with Rotator Cuff Injuries appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which Anatomic Long Head of Biceps Tensioning Technique is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06571695 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Illinois. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
