Abstrakt:	Rotator cuff repair is a common orthopaedic procedure. Despite advancements in the mechanics of rotator cuff repair, the re-tear rate post repair remains significant. This review assesses the available literature on usage of collagen bio-inductive scaffolds for rotator cuff repairs. Augmentation of biology is a key strategy to improving success of rotator cuff repair. Current evidence suggests that augmentation of rotator cuff repairs with a collagen bio-inductive scaffold improves the thickness of the rotator cuff. There is a favourable safety profile, and its usage may improve re-tear rates. However, there is currently no consensus on whether clinical outcomes are improved by the usage of collagen bio-inductive scaffolds. Further research is necessary to increase our understanding of the clinical effects of using collagen bio-inductive scaffolds and to determine which patient profiles will best benefit from its usage.
