The purpose of this study is to evaluate preoperative objective measurements of patients with a proximal humerus fracture 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 open reduction, internal fixation surgery were followed clinically and radiographically to determine best practice and optimal treatment and technique, risk and rate of complication, and postoperative outcomes.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. English speaking
2. >18 years of age
3. open reduction internal fixation surgical management of a proximal humeral fracture

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Non-English speaking
2. <18 years of age
3. Greater Tuberosity Fractures

All eligible patients of the principal investigator receiving open reduction internal fixation of the proximal humerus for any indication at St. Elizabeth Healthcare on or after January 1, 2010 will be evaluated and included in the data analysis.
