This study included 615 individuals undergoing arthroscopic acromioplasty. At 1 year after surgery 16.6% of the patients were receiving sick leave benefit. . At 5 years after surgery 22.6% were receiving permanent benefit. The strongest predictor of long-term sick leave benefit and permanent benefit was opioid use during the first year after the procedure.
