Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older who have undergone shoulder arthroplasty for complex fractures or posttraumatic conditions.

Probably not a fit

Patients with contraindications to shoulder arthroplasty or those unable to comply with follow-up requirements may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to collect long-term data on the safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the Anatomical Shoulder 2.0 Fracture System used in shoulder arthroplasty. It involves a multicenter approach, gathering both retrospective and prospective data from patients who have undergone surgery since 2014. The primary focus is on assessing implant survivorship through the incidence of revisions and complications, while secondary objectives include evaluating patient-reported outcomes and radiographic results during follow-up visits over a decade. The study will include a total of 78 cases from two sites, with comprehensive data collection at various postoperative intervals.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide valuable insights into the long-term safety and effectiveness of the Anatomical Shoulder 2.0 Fracture System, potentially improving patient outcomes in shoulder surgeries.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies on shoulder arthroplasty devices have shown promising results, indicating that this approach is supported by existing evidence.
