Subscapularis Repair Augmentation for Total Shoulder Arthroplasty

Augmentation of Subscapularis Repair in Total Shoulder Arthroplasty

The primary purpose of this research is to compare the images obtained by ultrasound between a standard repair of the subscapularis tissue and after repair with a Biobrace. The secondary purpose is to determine if there are any clinical differences.

The investigators would like to learn if subscapularis repair augmentation with the Biobrace in total shoulder arthroplasty (reverse and anatomic) will result in sonographic and/or clinical improvements. This will allow for improvements in technique and better outcomes for patients going forward.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Total Shoulder Arthroplasty

Exclusion Criteria:

• Vulnerable population
