Summary

This study tests a new device called VirtuaCare™ that gives patients real-time feedback on their at-home shoulder exercises. Researchers want to see if it helps people recovering from shoulder replacement or rotator cuff repair do their prescribed exercises more consistently. About 60 adults who had surgery with Dr. Brian Grawe will use the platform and their progress will be tracked.
