This study will assess the 1) time to return to pre-injury work level and 2) time to return to modified duties among those who have no movement restriction post-repair and those who are splinted for 6 weeks. Re-rupture rates between groups will also be assessed as will strength, range of motion (ROM) and quality of life. These findings will assist in developing a standardized protocol for immobilization to optimize functional and clinical outcomes while expediting return to work.
