Condition(s) studied

Osteoarthritis of the Shoulder

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Total Shoulder ArthroplastyReverse Shoulder Arthroplasty

Total Shoulder Arthroplasty: Replacement of the shoulder joint (ball and socket, or humeral head and glenoid) using prosthetic components.

Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty: Replacement of the shoulder joint like the TSA, however the orientation of the ball and socket is reversed.

Study summary

This study will compare total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) procedures, in the context of a prospective, randomized-controlled trial to determine the optimal treatment in patients 65 years of age and older, and equal to or less than 15 degrees of glenoid retroversion, who have glenohumeral osteoarthritis.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patients who have failed standard non-surgical management of their idiopathic shoulder osteoarthritis who would benefit from a shoulder arthroplasty. Failed medical management will be defined as persistent pain and disability despite adequate standard non-operative management for 6 months. Medical management will be defined as: 1. The use of drugs including analgesics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs 2. Physiotherapy consisting of stretching, strengthening and local modalities (ultrasound, cryotherapy, etc.) 3. Activity modification 2. Imaging, and intra-operative findings confirming advanced glenohumeral cartilage loss 3. Patients may present with a glenoid deficiency and \</=15 degrees of retroversion 4. 65 years of age and older Exclusion Criteria: 1. Active joint or systemic infection 2. Rotator cuff arthropathy 3. Significant muscle paralysis 4. Charcot's arthropathy 5. Major medical illness (life expectancy less than 1 year or unacceptably high operative risk) 6. Unable to understand the consent form/process 7. Pregnancy 8. Psychiatric illness that precludes informed consent 9. Unwilling to be followed for the duration of the study 10. Retroversion cannot be surgically corrected to within 10 degrees of neutral 11. History of previous shoulder surgery on affected side

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • Western Ontario Osteoarthritis of the Shoulder Index (WOOS) — 24-Months and 5-Years Post-Operative
    The Western Ontario Osteoarthritis of the Shoulder Index (WOOS) is a disease specific evaluation, proven to be an accurate and valid assessment of function after shoulder replacement. The WOOS is a patient-reported measure, 19-question survey. Each question is measured using a visual analog scale rated from 0-100, where higher scores mean better outcome.
