PEMF is currently approved by the FDA for adjunctive treatment of lumbar/cervical spine fusion and for treatment of long-bone non-unions. Soft tissues are a potential new therapeutic application for PEMF due to pre-clinical studies showing a reduction of inflammatory markers following PEMF exposure. The aim was therefore to investigate the structural/functional effects of PEMFs on tendon-to-bone and tendon-to-tendon healing in a rotator-cuff (RC) and Achilles tendon (AT) repair model, respectively. RC study: Adult male rats (n=280), underwent bi-lateral supraspinatus tendon transections with immediate repair followed by cage activity until sacrifice (4, 8, and 16 weeks). Non-controls received PEMF for 1, 3, or 6 hours daily. AT study: Male rats underwent acute, complete transection and repair of the Achilles tendon (FULL, n=144) or full thickness, partial width injury (PART, n=160) followed by immobilization for 1 week. Sacrifice was at 1, 3, and 6 weeks. Outcome measures included passive joint mechanics, gait analysis, biomechanical assessments, histological analysis of the repair site and mCT (humerus) assessment (FULL only). RC study: Significant increases in modulus, stiffness, bone mineral content and improved collagen organization was observed for the PEMF groups. No differences in joint mechanics and ambulation were observed. AT study: A decrease in stiffness and limb-loading rate was observed for the PEMF groups for the FULL groups, whereas an increase in stiffness with no change in range-of-motion was seen for the PART groups. The combined studies show that PEMF can be effective for soft tissue repair but is dependent on the location of application.
