Brief summary

This is a study involving multiple hospitals in Australia and is collecting data prospectively. Its aim is to assess patients presenting glenohumeral arthritis who are undergoing a primary anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty procedure. The performance of the Affinis Glenoid vitamys uncemented in anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty is assessed through: • Survivorship (rates of revision) • Patient mortality rates, • Range of Motion analysis, • Complications • Evaluation of x rays • Patient reported outcome Measurements (PROMs)

Interventions

This multi-centre prospective registry-nested study is designed to assess patients presenting with glenohumeral arthritis who are undergoing a primary anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty procedure. The primary objective is to determine glenoid implant survival at 2, 5 and 10 years post-operatively utilising the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry (AOANJRR) data rates of revision. Patient are involved in the study to answer online Patient Reported Outcome Me

This multi-centre prospective registry-nested study is designed to assess patients presenting with glenohumeral arthritis who are undergoing a primary anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty procedure. The primary objective is to determine glenoid implant survival at 2, 5 and 10 years post-operatively utilising the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry (AOANJRR) data rates of revision. Patient are involved in the study to answer online Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) preoperatively and at follow-up visits. All other procedures are performed as per standard of care and data is collected through AOANJRR. Survivorship of the implant is observed in terms of adverse event, complication of the implants, reason of revision, radiographic data and mortality. The following online questionnaires are collected: American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES): 3-5 minutes to complete Oxford Society Score (OSS): 2-5 minutes to complete EQ-5D-5L: around 2-5 minutes to complete VAS pain scale: 1 minute to complete .
