Study on shoulder bone fracture outcomes
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at people 65 or older who have broken the top part of their arm bone near the shoulder. It aims to learn more about how these fractures heal and affect daily life, which may help improve future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 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.
This trial compares surgery versus non-surgical treatment for a broken shoulder bone (proximal humerus) in adults aged 50 to 65. It aims to find which approach leads to better recovery and function.
This trial tests if early surgery helps older patients heal from a broken upper arm bone (the humerus). It may lead to better recovery and less pain.
This trial is testing different ways to treat a broken upper arm bone (proximal humerus fracture) in adults. It compares treatment options to see which works best for healing and recovery.
This trial looks at how well a specific metal plate (a proximal humerus plating system) helps heal certain fractures near the shoulder. It may help doctors learn what outcomes to expect after surgery for these types of breaks.
