Intraoperative measurements of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty contact forces

Abstract Purpose Instability and fractures may result from tensioning errors during reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA). To help understand tension, we measured intraoperative glenohumeral contact forces (GHCF) during RTSA. Methods Twenty-six patients underwent RTSA, and a strain gauge was at...
