Shoulder surgery study aims to fix common problem: Can't scratch your back

NCT ID NCT05753904

Summary

This study compared two surgical techniques during reverse shoulder replacement surgery. It aimed to see if cutting a specific tendon during the procedure would better restore patients' ability to perform functional movements like reaching behind their back. The trial was terminated early after enrolling 26 patients, so no final results are available.
