This multi-site study involving Northwestern Medicine, Beaumont Health, and Loyola Medicine seeks to answer the following question: do patients who undergo subscapularis (SSc) repair during reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) have better post-operative outcomes than patients who do not undergo SSc repair during RSA? The investigators hypothesize that patients who do not undergo SSc repair during RSA have better post-operative outcomes than patients who undergo SSc repair during RSA. This study will address the controversy surrounding SSc repair during RSA via a multi-institutional randomized controlled trial that will compare clinical outcomes of patients who receive SSc repair during RSA to those who do not.

Phase
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use. |
