Computational simulation of bone remodelling post reverse total shoulder arthroplasty
… to elucidate the response of bone following a reverse shoulder procedure. The reverse shoulder procedure investigated here is for rotary cuff deficient patients. In this procedure up to 75 % complications are reported in some clinical series. It is therefore necessary, for the design of …

Multi-objective design optimization of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty to maximize range of motion and joint stability
<p>Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty was developed to restore range of motion (ROM) and joint stability to patients with pre-operative conditions that are not addressed by conventional replacements. Although reverse total shoulder arthroplasty is the current gold standard for treating a range of …

Finite Element Modeling of Patient-Specific Total Shoulder Arthroplasty
<p>Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (TSA) is a surgical procedure designed to improve joint functionality by replacing the articulation between the humeral head and the glenoid fossa. Anatomic Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (aTSA) and Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (rTSA) are two types of replacement …

Patient-Specific Musculoskeletal Modeling of Total Shoulder Arthroplasty
<p>Total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) is often considered a surgery of last resort for patients with debilitating pathologies of the glenohumeral joint such as osteoarthritis, humeral head fracture, and advancing rotator cuff tears. TSA replaces the articulation between the humeral head and the …

Biomechanical assessment of RTSA functional outcomes towards optimising the prosthesis configuration
Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) alleviates pain and restores function to patients with cuff tear arthropathies or massive rotator cuff tears. The procedure uses a semi-constrained prosthesis to reverse the orientation of the glenohumeral joint, thereby altering the biomechanics of the …

Side-to-Side Comparison of Total Shoulder Arthroplasty and Intact Function in Individuals
<p>Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (TSA) is a surgery which replaces the shoulder joint, or the interface between the humerus and the scapula glenoid. To test TSA success, most prior research compares patients with TSA to healthy controls. However, the shoulder anthropometry, motion, and musculature of …
