Long-term follow-up of FX Shoulder Solutions implants
RETRO-PROSPECTIVE POSTMARKET CLINICAL STUDY FOR FX SHOULDER SOLUTIONS SHOULDER SYSTEMS
This follow-up will track adults who receive FX Shoulder Solutions hemi or total shoulder replacements to see if the implants need revision and how well shoulder function and pain hold up over 10 years.

What this trial studies
This post‑market program enrolls up to 1,004 cases across 11 implant groups and follows patients for 10 years after their index shoulder arthroplasty. Enrollment may be retrospective or preferably prospective, with follow-up visits at 6 weeks, 3–6 months, 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 10 years. The primary outcome is long‑term revision rate, and secondary outcomes include range of motion, patient‑reported scores (QuickDASH, Constant, ASES, SSV, pain), radiographic implant positioning, complication incidence, and qualitative surgeon feedback on instrumentation. Data collection is intended to reflect real‑world performance of the FX Shoulder Solutions systems.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Adults aged 18 and over who are insured, have provided informed consent, and are indicated for hemi or total shoulder replacement with an FX Shoulder Solutions system per the device instructions are eligible.
Not a fit: Patients with neurological disorders that compromise shoulder stability, morbid obesity, or severe muscular deficiencies impairing the shoulder joint are excluded and unlikely to benefit from participation.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the results could confirm the implants' long‑term durability and safety and help surgeons choose the best replacement for patients.
How similar studies have performed: Long‑term postmarket registries and cohort studies of shoulder arthroplasty have previously produced useful revision and function data, so this approach follows established methods rather than being entirely novel.
