Shoulder fracture replacement study for adults using a Zimmer Biomet system
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial studies how safe and well a specific shoulder replacement system works after certain serious shoulder injuries or failed prior treatments. You may be considered if you need shoulder surgery for complex proximal humerus fractures or related post-injury problems, and you can return for follow-up visits.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older and your bones have finished growing
- You can understand the surgeon’s instructions and agree to participate, including follow-up visits
- You are getting shoulder replacement surgery that replaces parts of the upper arm bone and the shoulder socket surface
- Your condition matches one of these: complex 3- or 4-part upper arm fractures, fracture instability after prior fixation, or post-injury bone death/arthritis
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding
- You do not have signs of infection or severe shoulder stiffness without pain

This trial compares non-surgical care with two different surgical fixation methods for a displaced two-part shoulder (upper arm) fracture. It aims to see which approach leads to the best recovery and function.
This study is testing a shoulder replacement system made by Zimmer Biomet to see how well it works for people with severe shoulder problems, like arthritis or fractures. If you qualify, you would receive the implant and be asked to come back for regular checkups to track your recovery.
This study tests a specific device used for shoulder arthroplasty (shoulder replacement) in adults. You may be able to join if you need a shoulder replacement and meet safety checks around infection, bone quality, and allergies.
This trial studies a specific shoulder replacement implant system. It may help people with damaged shoulder joints by testing how well the implant works and how it affects recovery and function.
This study follows patients who have received a new shoulder replacement device to see how well it works and how patients recover. Researchers will collect information about your shoulder function and satisfaction over time.
This study checks outcomes in people who already received certain Zimmer Biomet shoulder implant components using the correct surgical technique. It may help improve how these specific implants are used and monitored after surgery.
