Shoulder ID Primary Reversed Glenoid Outcomes Clinical Study
About
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and performance of the Stryker Shoulder ID, a personalized shoulder implant designed to meet the unique needs of each patient. The implant is created by using Blueprint 3D planning software.
Stryker is conducting this non-significant risk study to meet European Union (EU) Medical Device Regulation (MDR) clinical post-market surveillance and reporting requirements.
The purpose of this post-market clinical follow-up study is to demonstrate the safety and performance of Shoulder iD™ Primary Reversed Glenoid after implantation over a standard follow-up period using patient reported outcome measures (PROM) related to quality of life, pain and functional improvements, safety of the implants, as well as radiographic assessments. The outcome measures collected in this study will be analyzed and reported as required for local, regional and country requirements (i.e., regulatory authorities and notified bodies) and to support peer-reviewed publications on product performance and safety.
The implant being studied is intended to replace the shoulder joint, reduce pain and improve shoulder mobility compared to preoperative status.
