Summary

This trial is monitoring the safety and performance of a shoulder replacement device called the GLOBAL ICON stemless humeral component. The data will be used to make sure the device is safe and effective and to help make the case for it to be used more widely.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with severe joint pain or disability from non-inflammatory arthritis, like osteoarthritis. Participants must be able to follow the study schedule and give consent. It's not for those under 21 or over 80, with previous shoulder treatments that could affect results, pregnant/breastfeeding women, people with certain bone diseases or conditions affecting bone quality, known allergies to implant materials, substance abuse issues, psychological disorders impacting treatment outcomes, or fractures compromising implant fixation.
What is being tested?
The GLOBAL ICON stemless humeral component is being tested in this study. The aim is to monitor its safety and performance after it has been marketed. This involves collecting data on how well it works and any potential issues in patients who have received this shoulder replacement device.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here as it's a post-market study focusing on overall safety and performance of the device; generally speaking, possible side effects may include pain at the surgery site, infection risk increase around the implant area and potential problems related to improper fitting of the device.
