Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty: A Data Analysis on Patients Undergoing Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (rTSA)

The purpose of this study is to evaluate reverse total shoulder arthroplasty patients preoperative objective measurements and operative objective measurements to determine if there is any effect to postoperative outcomes. Patients who were 18 years old or greater at the time of surgery were followed clinically and radiographically to determine best practice and optimal treatment and technique, risk and rate of complication, and postoperative outcomes.
