PURPOSE To describe the main features of the rehabilitation protocols for RC disease based on the phases of tendon healing and to investigate about the use of wearable devices as monitoring systems. METHODS We performed a comprehensive search of PubMed, Medline, Cochrane, CINAHL, and EMBASE databases using various combination of the keywords "rotator cuff," "rotator cuff tear," "rehabilitation protocol," "accelerated," "conservative," "stiffness," "exercises," and "wearable devices." All articles concerning precision orthopaedic rehabilitation therapy in rotator cuff disease were retrieved. RESULTS To date, rehabilitation protocols are not comparable due to wide heterogeneity of RC diseases. Wearable technologies are becoming a revolutionary tool for movement and posture monitoring. CONCLUSION Rehabilitation protocols for RC disease should be tailored on the basis of the different phases of tendon healing. Wearable devices hold the promise to offer a new outlook for long-term follow-up during the postoperative period providing information to the clinician about patient's status.

肩关节袖套疾病的物理治疗和精确康复。

目的根据肌腱愈合的阶段来描述RC疾病康复方案的主要特征，并研究可穿戴设备作为监测系统的使用。方法我们使用关键词“肩袖”，“肩袖撕裂”，“康复方案”，“加速”，“保守”，“刚度”的各种组合对PubMed，Medline，Cochrane，CINAHL和EMBASE数据库进行了全面搜索，“运动”和“可穿戴设备”。检索了所有有关肩袖疾病的精确骨科康复治疗的文章。结果迄今为止，由于RC疾病的广泛异质性，康复方案尚无可比性。可穿戴技术正在成为运动和姿势监测的革命性工具。结论RC疾病的康复方案应根据肌腱愈合的不同阶段进行调整。可穿戴设备有望为术后的长期随访提供新的前景，从而为临床医生提供有关患者状况的信息。
