New shoulder implant tested for long-term relief in severe tears and arthritis
NCT ID NCT05868148
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 28, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study follows 200 adults who receive the Shoulder iD™ implant to treat severe rotator cuff tears or shoulder arthritis. Researchers measure how well the shoulder works and how often the implant needs to be fixed or replaced over 10 years. Participants attend regular check-ups, have X-rays or CT scans, and fill out questionnaires about their shoulder function and pain.

Inclusion Criteria: * 18 years or older at the time of the informed consent or non-opposition (when applicable). * Informed and willing to sign an informed consent form approved by IRB or EC (when applicable). * Willing and able to comply with the requirements of the study protocol. * Considered a candidate for shoulder arthroplasty using a study device. * Meets indications for use requirements or other local, regional, or geographic specific regulatory requirements Exclusion Criteria: * Patients who are not able to comply with the study procedures based on the judgment of the assessor (e.g., cannot comprehend study questions, inability to keep scheduled assessment times). * Patient belongs to a vulnerable group of patients, including minor patients, those unable to decide for themselves to participate or needing a Legally Authorized Representative (LAR), or others who could be subject to coercion (patients who may not be acting on their own initiative) (referred to as a "vulnerable subject" in section 3.44 of the ISO 14155:2020). * Active local or systemic infection, sepsis, or osteomyelitis * Poor bone quality, where there could be considerable migration of the prothesis and/or a chance of fracture of the humerus or glenoid (reassessed at time of surgery) * Significant injury to the brachial plexus * Inadequate bone stock in the proximal humerus or glenoid fossa for supporting the device components * Neuromuscular disease (e.g., joint neuropathy) Known allergy to one of the product materials * Metabolic disorders which may impair bone formation
