Ultrasound guide for shoulder position during standing test
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study uses ultrasound (a non-radiation imaging tool) to help check the best way to hold your shoulder blade while standing. It’s aimed at people having a reverse shoulder replacement on their own shoulder joint, to see if this positioning method can improve care or planning.

This trial studies a rehabilitation plan after reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (reverse shoulder replacement) to see if it improves recovery. If you are eligible, you may be guided through specific therapy and follow-up visits as part of the study.
This study uses a special low-dose X-ray machine (EOS®) to take 3D pictures of your shoulder after reverse total shoulder replacement. The goal is to better understand how the replacement parts move and fit together. It may help improve future surgeries.
This trial looks at a specific shoulder replacement implant and follow-up care for people who need a shoulder arthroplasty (shoulder replacement) for certain joint problems or fractures. You may be a candidate if you can take part in required visits and your shoulder muscles and bone are suitable.
This study tests a new shoulder implant system for people who need their first shoulder replacement due to arthritis or a shoulder deformity. It helps researchers see how well the implant works and if it improves shoulder function and pain.
This study uses a special full-body low-dose X-ray machine (EOS) to take images of your shoulder while you are standing, before you have shoulder replacement surgery. The goal is to see if the ball of the shoulder joint sits in a slightly different position when you are upright, which could help doctors plan your surgery better.
This study looks at how shoulder arthritis affects joint movement patterns. It compares patients with arthritis, healthy volunteers, and people who had a shoulder replacement that later needed a revision.
