Trial Outcomes & Findings for Reverse Shoulder Prosthesis Study (NCT NCT00764504)

NCT ID: NCT00764504

Last Updated: 2011-04-19

Results Overview

The patient self-report section of the ASES is a condition specific scale which is intended to measure functional limitations and pain of the shoulder. On a scale of 0 to 100, the use of their shoulder is measured with 0 = no use and 100 = full use. The assessment is done in two sections. One Pain (measured by the Visual Analog Pain Scale) and the second is a list of 10 questions referred to as the Activities of Daily Living. The results are calculated with the following equation: \[(10 - Visual analog scale pain score) x 5\] + \[(5/3) x Cumulative ADL score\]

Primary
Subjects who are eligible to receive a reverse shoulder prosthesis and who have not previously received another orthopedic implant in the operative shoulder.
Revision
Subjects who are eligible to receive a reverse shoulder prosthesis and who have previously received another orthopedic implant in the operative shoulder. The change in implant device is due to failure of the previously inserted orthopedic device.
Continued Access
Subjects who are eligible to receive a reverse shoulder prosthesis and who have not previously received another orthopedic implant in the operative shoulder. This group are also primary subjects who were enrolled at a later date in order to collect additional data on the reverse shoulder.
