Core Tip	This study included 97 patients with rotator cuff injuries treated in the People's Hospital of Yuhuan from February 2020 to May 2023. Patients were grouped using the envelope method. Forty-eight patients in the control group were treated with rehabilitation techniques, whereas forty-nine patients in the study group were treated with electroacupuncture combined with rehabilitation techniques. A follow-up was conducted for 6 months, assessing the patients at the last follow-up, comparing the shoulder Constant Murley Score, shoulder mobility, and 36-Item Short Form Health Survey scores before and 6 months after treatment. Complications in the patients were recorded until the follow-up period. The results showed that electroacupuncture combined with rehabilitation techniques had a good treatment effect on patients with rotator cuff injuries, aiding in the acceleration of shoulder function recovery, improving quality of life, and demonstrating high safety.
