Summary

This study follows 50 people who receive a Zimmer Biomet shoulder replacement implant to see if it safely improves pain, movement, and quality of life over two years. Participants have shoulder arthritis, fractures, or other joint damage. The main goal is to measure a meaningful improvement in shoulder function using a standard score. Researchers will also track any side effects or device problems.
