First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study looks at how the rotator cuff muscles are doing one and two years after total shoulder replacement surgery. Researchers will use EMG and CT scans to check for nerve damage or tears in the muscles. About 30 adults who had shoulder replacement for osteoarthritis will take part. The goal is to learn more about long-term muscle health after surgery, not to test a new treatment.
