Abstract
INTRODUCTION While several general questionnaires can be used to evaluate shoulder conditions, very few tools specifically evaluate the impact of shoulder osteoarthritis. The Western Ontario Osteoarthritis of the Shoulder index (WOOS) is a patient-reported outcome measure with excellent psychometric properties intended for patients suffering from shoulder osteoarthritis. Unfortunately, there is no validated French version of this questionnaire. OBJECTIVE Produce a validated French version of the WOOS that is suitable for the Francophone populations of Europe and North America. MATERIAL AND METHODS A validated protocol was used to create a French version of the WOOS (WOOS-Fr). Included were patients whose first language was French, who could read French and who had shoulder osteoarthritis destined for treatment (surgical treatment=arthroplasty). The WOOS-Fr was compared to the Disability of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand-French translation (F-QuickDASH-D/S) to assess its validity. Reliability and responsiveness were also analyzed. RESULTS A French version of the WOOS (WOOS-Fr) was accepted by a multinational committee. The WOOS-Fr was validated in 71 French-speaking subjects. A strong positive correlation was found between the WOOS-Fr and the F-QuickDASH-D/S during the initial evaluation. The intra-class correlation (ICC) of the total WOOS-Fr score indicated good reliability between the initial WOOS and the 1-week WOOS (ICC: 0.84; 95% CI: [0.767; 0.896]; p-value: <0.001) in 57 patients. The responsiveness between the initial WOOS-Fr and at 1 year postoperative was high in the 36 operated patients (standardized mean response of 1.95). DISCUSSION A French translation of the WOOS questionnaire was created and validated for use in French-speaking populations. This questionnaire will make it easier to evaluate the psychometric results of patients with shoulder osteoarthritis in Francophone countries. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III; multicenter cohort study.

Lee BG, Lee D, Koh JH. Relationship between the preoperative grip strength and postoperative shoulder strength of patients treated via reverse shoulder arthroplasty. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2023; 32:2430-2435. [PMID: 37516347 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2023.06.033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2023] [Revised: 06/11/2023] [Accepted: 06/24/2023] [Indexed: 07/31/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic disorders including diabetes mellitus, obesity, and depression affect the outcomes of reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). Sarcopenia (a general skeletal muscle disorder) is common in elderly people, but its effect on patients after RSA is not clear. We hypothesized that the preoperative sarcopenia indices of grip strength and general skeletal muscle mass would correlate with the clinical outcomes of RSA. METHODS Grip strength and general skeletal muscle mass were measured in patients scheduled (between 2016 and 2021) for primary RSA to treat cuff tear arthropathy, an unrepairable cuff tear, or osteoarthritis with a large cuff tear. Before surgery, grip strength was measured using a hydraulic dynamometer and general skeletal muscle mass was calculated from the appendicular relative skeletal muscle mass index (aRSMI) using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. In all, 58 patients were included; the minimal follow-up duration was 12 months. The postoperative clinical results (pain, active range of motion, shoulder strength, and functional scores) were evaluated during scheduled outpatient visits. We calculated correlations between the preoperative sarcopenia indices, and the clinical results at the final follow-up. RESULTS The mean preoperative grip strength and aRSMI were 21.6 ± 4.0 kg and 5.98 ± 0.84 kg/m2 in females and 30.6 ± 7.5 kg and 7.21 ± 0.94 kg/m2 in males, respectively; the grip strength and aRSMI were not associated with each other (P = .083). Ten females (25%) and 10 males (56%) met the criteria for sarcopenia. The postoperative abduction shoulder strength and Constant-Murley shoulder score increased significantly with higher preoperative grip strength (R = 0.420 and P = .001; and R = 0.497 and P < .001, respectively) and the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score was related to the preoperative aRSMI (R = 0.320, P = .039). CONCLUSIONS The shoulder strength and functional score after RSA correlated positively with the preoperative grip strength. Measuring grip strength before RSA allows the surgeon to predict shoulder strength after RSA.

Return to sport criteria following upper extremity surgery in athletes-part 4: shoulder arthroplasty procedures: a scoping review. J ISAKOS 2023; 8:364-371. [PMID: 37393032 DOI: 10.1016/j.jisako.2023.06.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2022] [Revised: 06/09/2023] [Accepted: 06/22/2023] [Indexed: 07/03/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To describe the reported return to sports (RTS) criteria following all types of shoulder arthroplasty procedures in athletes. METHODS This scoping review was performed using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses-Scoping Review (PRISMA-ScR) as a guide. A comprehensive search was conducted in four electronic databases (Scopus, Pubmed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, and Google Scholar Advanced Search) in the English Language that reported a minimum of 1 RTS criterion in athletes after shoulder arthroplasty. The data were aggregated and summarized as frequencies, means, and standard deviations. RESULTS Thirteen studies were included, with a total of 942 athletes with a mean age of 68.7 years. The most commonly used RTS criterion was time from surgery (range 3-6 months), reported by 7/13 (54%) of all studies, followed by restrictions on contact sports (36%). Other reported RTS criteria included no lifting/limited lifting (3/13, 23%), physician clearance based on assessment (3/13, 23%), return per patient tolerance (2/13, 15%), and upon return to full range of motion (ROM) and strength in the operated shoulder (1/13, 8%). Three studies (3/13, 23%) allowed for an unrestricted RTSpostoperatively. CONCLUSION Thirteen studies reported one or more RTS criteria following shoulder arthroplasty, with time after surgery being the most common RTS criterion used. These results emphasise the need for interprofessional discussions and communication amongst surgeons, physical therapists, and athletic trainers to establish evidence-based RTS criteria following arthroplasty and promote a safe and effective return to sport.

Brindisino F, Lorusso M, Usai M, Pellicciari L, Marruganti S, Salomon M. Rehabilitation following shoulder arthroplasty: a survey of current clinical practice patterns of Italian physiotherapists. Arch Physiother 2023; 13:12. [PMID: 37277886 DOI: 10.1186/s40945-023-00166-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2022] [Accepted: 05/15/2023] [Indexed: 06/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (TSA) and Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (RTSA) is constantly increasing. As a result, the interest in post-surgical rehabilitation has grown, since it is crucial in order to achieve full recovery and successful outcomes. The first aim of this study is to investigate the Italian physiotherapists (PTs) clinical practice in the management of patients with TSA and RTSA and to compare it with the best evidence available in the literature. The second purpose of this study is to assess any existing difference between the survey answers and the different sample subgroups. MATERIALS AND METHODS This cross-sectional observation study was designed following the CHERRIES checklist and the STROBE guidelines. A 4-sections survey with a total of 30 questions was developed for investigating post-surgery rehabilitation management in patient with TSA and RTSA. The survey was sent to Italian PTs from December 2020 until February 2021. RESULTS Six-hundred and seven PTs completed the survey regarding both TSA and RTSA; 43.5% of participants (n = 264/607) stated that TSA is more likely to dislocate during abduction and external rotation. Regarding reverse prosthesis, 53.5% (n = 325/607) affirmed RTSA is more likely to dislocate during internal rotation, adduction and extension. In order to recover passive Range of Motion (pROM), 62.1% (n = 377/607) of participants reported that they gain anterior flexion, abduction, internal rotation, external rotation up to 30°, with full pROM in all directions granted at 6-12 weeks. Regarding the active ROM (aROM), 44.2% (n = 268/607) of participants stated that they use active-assisted procedures within a range under 90° of elevation and abduction at 3-4 weeks and higher than 90° at 6-12 weeks, with full recovery at a 3-month mark. Sixty-five point seven percent of the sample (n = 399/607) declared that, during the rehabilitation of patients with TSA, they tend to focus on strengthening the scapular and rotator cuff muscles, deltoid, biceps and triceps. Conversely, 68.0% (n = 413/607) of participants stated that, for the rehabilitation of patients with RTSA, they preferably focus on strengthening the periscapular and deltoid muscles. Finally, 33.1% (n = 201/607) of participants indicated the instability of the glenoid prosthetic component as the most frequent complication in patients with TSA, while 42.5% (n = 258/607) of PTs identified scapular neck erosion as the most frequent post-RTSA surgery complication. CONCLUSIONS The clinical practice of Italian PTs effectively reflects the indications of the literature as far as the strengthening of the main muscle groups and the prevention of movements, which may result in a dislocation, are concerned. Some differences emerged in the clinical practice of Italian PTs, regarding the restoration of active and passive movement, the starting and progression of muscle strengthening and the return to sport (RTS). These differences are actually quite representative of the current knowledge in post-surgical rehabilitation for shoulder prosthesis in the rehabilitation field. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE V.

Optimizing Outcomes After Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty: Rehabilitation, Expected Outcomes, and Maximizing Return to Activities. Curr Rev Musculoskelet Med 2023; 16:145-153. [PMID: 36867393 PMCID: PMC10043097 DOI: 10.1007/s12178-023-09823-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 02/04/2023] [Indexed: 03/04/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Given the touted clinical and patient-reported outcomes of reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) in improving pain and restoring function, shoulder surgeons are rapidly expanding the indications and utilization of RTSA. Despite its increasing use, the ideal post-operative management ensuring the best patient outcomes is still debated. This review synthesizes the current literature regarding the impact of post-operative immobilization and rehabilitation on clinical outcomes following RTSA including return to sport. RECENT FINDINGS Literature regarding the various facets of post-operative rehabilitation is heterogeneous in both methodology and quality. While most surgeons recommend 4-6 weeks of immobilization post-operatively, two recent prospective studies have shown that early motion following RTSA is both safe and effective with low complication rates and significant improvements in patient-reported outcome scores. Furthermore, no studies currently exist assessing the use of home-based therapy following RTSA. However, there is an ongoing prospective, randomized control trial assessing patient-reported and clinical outcomes which will help shed light on the clinical and economic value of home therapy. Finally, surgeons have varying opinions regarding return to higher level activities following RTSA. Despite no clear consensus, there is growing evidence that elderly patients are able to return to sport (e.g., golf, tennis) safely, though caution must be taken with younger or more high-functioning patients. While post-operative rehabilitation is believed to be essential to maximize outcomes following RTSA, there is a paucity of high-quality evidence that guides current rehabilitation protocols. There is no consensus regarding type of immobilization, timing of rehabilitation, or need for formal therapist-directed rehabilitation versus physician-guided home exercise. Additionally, surgeons have varied opinions regarding return to higher level activities and sports following RTSA. There is burgeoning evidence that elderly patients can return to sport safely, though caution must be taken with younger patients. Further research is needed to clarify the optimal rehabilitation protocols and return to sport guidelines.

Effects of Concurrent Strength and Endurance Training on Measures of Physical Fitness in Healthy Middle-Aged and Older Adults: A Systematic Review with Meta-Analysis. Sports Med 2023; 53:437-455. [PMID: 36222981 PMCID: PMC9876872 DOI: 10.1007/s40279-022-01764-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 09/04/2022] [Indexed: 01/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND There is evidence that in older adults the combination of strength training (ST) and endurance training (ET) (i.e., concurrent training [CT]) has similar effects on measures of muscle strength and cardiorespiratory endurance (CRE) compared with single-mode ST or ET, respectively. Therefore, CT seems to be an effective method to target broad aspects of physical fitness in older adults. OBJECTIVES The aim was to examine the effects of CT on measures of physical fitness (i.e., muscle strength, power, balance and CRE) in healthy middle-aged and older adults aged between 50 and 73 years. We also aimed to identify key moderating variables to guide training prescription. STUDY DESIGN We conducted a systematic review with meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. DATA SOURCES The electronic databases PubMed, Web of Science Core Collection, MEDLINE and Google Scholar were systematically searched until February 2022. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR SELECTING STUDIES We included randomized controlled trials that examined the effects of CT versus passive controls on measures of physical fitness in healthy middle-aged and older adults aged between 50 and 73 years. RESULTS Fifteen studies were eligible, including a total of 566 participants. CT induced moderate positive effects on muscle strength (standardized mean difference [SMD] = 0.74) and power (SMD = 0.50), with a small effect on CRE (SMD = 0.48). However, no significant effects were detected for balance (p > 0.05). Older adults > 65 years (SMD = 1.04) and females (SMD = 1.05) displayed larger improvements in muscle strength compared with adults ≤ 65 years old (SMD = 0.60) and males (SMD = 0.38), respectively. For CRE, moderate positive effects (SMD = 0.52) were reported in those ≤ 65 years old only, with relatively larger gains in females (SMD = 0.55) compared with males (SMD = 0.45). However, no significant differences between all subgroups were detected. Independent single training factor analysis indicated larger positive effects of 12 weeks (SMD = 0.87 and 0.88) compared with 21 weeks (SMD = 0.47 and 0.29) of CT on muscle strength and power, respectively, while for CRE, 21 weeks of CT resulted in larger gains (SMD = 0.62) than 12 weeks (SMD = 0.40). For CT frequency, three sessions per week produced larger beneficial effects (SMD = 0.91) on muscle strength compared with four sessions (SMD = 0.55), whereas for CRE, moderate positive effects were only noted after four sessions per week (SMD = 0.58). A session duration of > 30-60 min generated larger improvements in muscle strength (SMD = 0.99) and power (SMD = 0.88) compared with > 60-90 min (SMD = 0.40 and 0.29, respectively). However, for CRE, longer session durations (i.e., > 60-90 min) seem to be more effective (SMD = 0.61) than shorter ones (i.e., > 30-60 min) (SMD = 0.34). ET at moderate-to-near maximal intensities produced moderate (SMD = 0.64) and small positive effects (SMD = 0.49) on muscle strength and CRE, respectively, with no effects at low intensity ET (p > 0.05). Finally, intra-session ST before ET produced larger gains in muscle strength (SMD = 1.00) compared with separate sessions (SMD = 0.55), whereas ET and ST carried out separately induced larger improvements in CRE (SMD = 0.58) compared with intra-session ET before ST (SMD = 0.49). CONCLUSIONS CT is an effective method to improve measures of physical fitness (i.e., muscle strength, power, and CRE) in healthy middle-aged and older adults aged between 50 and 73 years, regardless of sex. Results of independent single training factor analysis indicated that the largest effects on muscle strength were observed after 12 weeks of training, > 30-60 min per session, three sessions per week, higher ET intensities and when ST preceded ET within the same session. For CRE, the largest effects were noted after 21 weeks of training, four sessions per week, > 60-90 min per session, higher ET intensities and when ET and ST sessions were performed separately. Regarding muscle power, the largest effects were observed after 12 weeks of training and > 30-60 min per session.

Impact of Sports Activity on Medium-Term Clinical and Radiological Outcome after Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty in Cuff Deficient Arthropathy; An Institutional Register-Based Analysis. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10040828. [PMID: 33670531 PMCID: PMC7922026 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10040828] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2020] [Revised: 02/05/2021] [Accepted: 02/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
There is a lack of consensus on what physicians can recommend and what patients can expect concerning sports activity after reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). The purpose of this retrospective register-based observational study was to investigate the association between participation in sports or physical activity involving the upper extremity and 5-year clinical and radiological outcomes for primary RSA patients. We screened the institutional arthroplasty registry for patients reporting the type and level of sports postoperatively after primary, unilateral RSA due to rotator cuff deficiency. One hundred thirty-eight patients with clinical and radiological outcomes documented at a minimum 5-year follow-up were divided into three groups comprising those who participated regularly in: sports mainly involving the upper extremity (sports upper extremities, SUE, n = 49), sports mainly involving the lower extremities (sports lower extremities, SLE, n = 21), and those who did not participate in sports at all (no sports, NS, n = 68). The participants had a mean age of 72 years (standard deviation (SD) 8) and were overall predominantly female patients (62%). Primary clinical outcomes included the Constant Score (CS) and Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI). Secondary radiographs were analyzed for radiolucent lines (RLL), signs of glenoid or humeral prosthesis loosening, bone resorption, bone formation, and scapular notching. A total number of 8 senior surgeons were involved in treatment of patients, and two types of prosthesis were used. The SUE group had non-significantly higher mean scores for CS (75 points) and SPADI (88 points) compared to SLE (71 and 78 points, respectively) and NS patients (66 and 78 points, respectively) (p ≥ 0.286). The incidence of RLL around the humeral diaphysis was higher in NS compared to SUE patients (32% versus 12%, respectively) (p = 0.025); all other radiological parameters were similar between the groups. There were no cases of loosening in the SUE group that led to revision surgery. Patients engaging in sports activities involving the upper extremity show similarly good functional scores 5 years post-RSA as the other groups, without additional signs of implant loosening as a result of increased shoulder use.
