Predictive factors and the duration to pre-injury work status following biceps tenodesis
Arthroscopy Mar 17, 2019
Agarwalla A, et al. - Between 2014 and 2017, data were estimated to assess the duration of return to work after biceps tenodesis stratified by the preinjury level of work-intensity and also to recognize the predictive measures of return to work. They noticed the ability to return to work without permanent restrictions among 79% of the total candidates at an average of 5.4 ± 2.8 months after biceps tenodesis. They also found distribution patterns in return to work status for sedentary, light, moderate, and heavy duties as 100%, 85%, 71%, and 69%, respectively. They noted an association of return to work with achieving patient-acceptable symptom state (PASS) for the American Shoulder Elbow Society (ASES) score and Single Assessment Numerical Evaluation (SANE) questionnaires but not for the subjective Constant-Murley score (CMS). They found no demographic or intraoperative variables predictive of return to work. Overall, no correlation between work intensity and an increased duration of return to work was observed.
