Brief summary

Overall study design: This study is a prospective, multicenter, postmarket clinical observation to validate the PROMOS™ Standard Shoulder System as state-of-the-art implant system for total shoulder arthroplasty in terms of radiographic and clinical performance as well as long-term survivorship over 10 years.

Detailed description

Primary objective: Radiological and clinical loosening rates of the glenoid and humeral components must be comparable or below the rates of other well documented state-of-the-art shoulder systems with cemented glenoid components. Complications occurring intra- or postoperatively will be assessed and sub-classified in their relation to the implant. At the end of the observation, a long-term survival rate will be calculated according to Kaplan-Meier with revision due to aseptic loosening as the end-point. Secondary objectives: The Constant Murley score and the ASES clinical evaluation are used for documenting the improvement in pain, function and range of motion. For the patient's subjective view of improvement in function a patient self-assessment form is used.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Constant Murley Score10 YearsThe Constant Murley Score is a shoulder outcome score to determine the functionality of the shoulder after the treatment of a shoulder injury. The score ranges from 0 to 100 with a higher score indicating better shoulder function.
ASES Shoulder Score Index10YearsThe American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeon's (ASES) evaluation is used to document the improvement in pain, function and range of motion after shoulder injury. The ASES Shoulder Score Index is calculated from the ASES patient related questionnaire and ranges from 0-100 with a higher score indicating improvement in pain and function.

Participant flow

Pre-assignment details

93 patients were assessed for eligibility. Two participants were excluded before receiving the intervention due to not meeting the inclusion criteria. Four enrolled subjects did not receive a PROMOS™ prosthesis due to different reasons but were changed to another shoulder implant which was not part of the study.

ASES Shoulder Score Index

The American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeon's (ASES) evaluation is used to document the improvement in pain, function and range of motion after shoulder injury. The ASES Shoulder Score Index is calculated from the ASES patient related questionnaire and ranges from 0-100 with a higher score indicating improvement in pain and function.

Time frame: 10Years

Population: As per the study flow chart, 26 study participants had a 10 year follow-up visit to collect the data supporting the primary outcome measure. The ASES Shoulder Score Index was calculated for 27 participants. As the score is a patient reported outcome the score could be completed at home increasing the number of available scores.

Constant Murley Score

The Constant Murley Score is a shoulder outcome score to determine the functionality of the shoulder after the treatment of a shoulder injury. The score ranges from 0 to 100 with a higher score indicating better shoulder function.

Time frame: 10 Years

Population: As per the study flow chart, 26 study participants had a 10 year follow-up visit to collect the data supporting the primary outcome measure. The Constant Murley Score was incomplete for 3 participants and therefore the number of participants analyzed is 23.
