Testing a shoulder replacement called Embrace for 2 years
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study looks at how safe an Embrace reverse shoulder replacement is over two years and what results you can expect on imaging scans. You may qualify if you’re an adult with a shoulder problem that can be treated with this specific type of replacement and have recent CT or MRI scans.

This trial tests a new shoulder replacement system that does not require a stem (a long piece that goes into the arm bone). It is for patients with severe shoulder arthritis or rotator cuff problems. The study will see how well the device works and how it compares to other treatments.
This study looks at how well a type of shoulder replacement (reverse shoulder arthroplasty) works for people with shoulder arthritis. It may help improve understanding of expected results and safety with a specific stemless implant called SMR.
This study looks at how the shoulder changes position (“reverts”) after a reverse shoulder replacement. It may help doctors better understand what to expect after surgery in people with certain age-related shoulder wear and tear.
This study collects information from people having shoulder replacement surgery with an Arthrex implant. It helps doctors learn how well these implants work over time.
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 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.
