What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial focuses on studying shoulder replacement devices made by FX Shoulder Solutions. The goal is to gather information on the effectiveness and safety of these devices for patients. The trial seeks individuals who have undergone shoulder replacement surgery with an FX device. Those who have had this type of surgery might be suitable candidates for the trial. As a Phase 4 trial, this research aims to understand how the already FDA-approved and effective treatment benefits a broader range of patients.

Do I have to stop taking my current medications for the trial?

The trial information does not specify whether you need to stop taking your current medications.

What prior data suggests that these implanted devices are safe?

A previous study found that shoulder replacement devices from FX Shoulder Solutions are generally safe for patients. Research shows a low chance of serious infection, a possible side effect, at about 1.6%. These devices have received approval for sale in the USA, indicating they have passed specific safety checks, which can reassure patients about their safety. Studies have also examined patient outcomes after receiving these devices, demonstrating their effectiveness and durability. While these results suggest the devices are well-tolerated, discussing potential risks with a doctor before joining a trial is always important.12345

Why are researchers excited about this trial?

FX Shoulder Solutions' shoulder replacement devices are exciting because they aim to improve the fit and function of shoulder implants. Unlike traditional shoulder replacements, which may not always perfectly match a patient's anatomy, these devices are designed to better accommodate the unique shapes and sizes of different shoulders. This tailored approach could potentially lead to better movement and less discomfort for patients after surgery. Researchers are hopeful that these advancements will provide a more natural feel and longer-lasting results compared to existing options.

What evidence suggests that these shoulder replacement devices are effective?

Research has shown that shoulder replacement devices from FX Shoulder Solutions hold promise for individuals with shoulder issues. One study on stemless shoulder replacement for arthritis found good results both clinically and in X-rays. This less invasive method preserves more bone, potentially speeding up recovery. Additionally, these devices are designed to align better with the body's natural shape, enhancing shoulder movement. Overall, these features make the shoulder replacement devices effective for treating conditions like arthritis.26789
