Radiological outcome in reverse shoulder arthroplasty does not correlate with patient satisfaction or quality of life
This study confirms rTSA's effectiveness in reducing pain and improving daily function, with a high readiness among patients to undergo the surgery again. Patient contentment and HRQoL showed a strong correlation with the clinical outcomes of the surgery. Radiological measurements may predict postoperative ROM and scapular notching yet fail to accurately reflect patient quality of life.
