About this study

This is a two steps observational study

In the first part we will compare the accuracy of the commercial guide against a in-hospital designed patient specific guide. As a secondary goal, the problems detected during the design phase will be described.

Once the accuracy of the guide is acceptable, we will implant the glenosphere of future patients using the PSG guide following the same engineering design process.

Read the detailed description

Reverse shoulder arthroplasty is a treatment for both non-synthesizable fractures and arthropathy degenerative. This implant is based on two main components: glenosphere and stem. The stem in turn is integrated in its upper part by a polyethylene that reduces the friction torque between the glenosphere and the stem.

Correct positioning of the glenosphere is critical for functionality and survival of the implant. Malpositioning of glenosphere can be related to:

In recent years, given the

  • The scapula is a flat bone, without any reference axis;
  • Surgical approaches expose only the glenoid cavity, with few bone landmarks;
  • The humerus and deltoid make access to the glenoid difficult;
  • The morphology of the scapula is very variable.

Preoperative planning even without PSG improves the positioning accuracy of the guide in the glenoid. In glenoids with only a slight deformity, PSGs improve the accuracy of the guide entry point (\<1 mm error, compared to \> 4 mm under visual control) and orientation (\< 3◦ error compared to \> 7◦). In glenoids with more significant deformities, planning also showed superiority.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

    Also called Patient Specific Guides

    Two replicas of each scapula are made. The scapulae are drilled with a commercial guide and with an in-house guide separately

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Difference in glenoid center

    Difference in glenoid center (mm): distance between the points of entry on the surface of the scapula, the planned center versus the finally drawn

    Measured: months

  2. Glenoid version deviation (α)

    Glenoid version deviation (α): defined as the angle between the real trajectory of the drilling and the scapular anatomical plane, projected about the axis of neutral inclination (defined as that which goes from the center of the glenoid to the trigonum spinae).

    Measured: months

  3. Glenoid inclination deviation (β)

    Glenoid inclination deviation (β): defined as the angle between the actual milling path and the plane of the neutral tilt axis, projected on the SP axis

    Measured: months

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Difference in glenoid center (time frame: months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06611059, which also lists 11 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Nov 2024.
