Glenohumeral Osteoarthritis, Total Shoulder Arthroplasty
Conditions
Brief summary
The proposed study aims to objectively assess 2-year clinical and radiographic results for the rate of glenoid component loosening in total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). This retrospective radiographic review will provide evidence for equivalence or superiority in curtailing loosening, a known complication in arthroplasty, when a hemostatic agent is utilized in conjunction with cement at the glenoid.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Radiographic Loosening | 2 years | Radiographic loosening is defined by the presence of radiolucent lines at the bone-cement interface at 2 years. Lines are measured as being either not-present, less than 2mm or greater than/equal to 2mm, in addition to implant seating and the radiodensity between the flanges of the central peg. |
