Analysis of patients with differing short-term rates of improvement and long-term rates of decline in range of motion and after anatomic and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty
The rate of improvement in ROM during the short-term recovery period after aTSA and rTSA is highly dependent on preoperative ROM, whereas the rate of decline in ROM at long-term follow-up is generally impacted by systemic health issues (ie, heart disease and more comorbidities), compromised implant fixation (ie, radiolucent lines after aTSA), and the onset of revision surgery. These findings may be beneficial for patient counseling and expectation management, especially to encourage patients who may have experienced a decline in ROM during the first 3 months after surgery.
