Sidus(TM) Post Market Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) Study

Sidus(TM) Stem-Free Shoulder - A Multi-center, Prospective, Non-controlled Post Market Clinical Follow-up Study.

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 8 Jun 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This post market clinical follow-up study is designed to confirm safety and performance of the Sidus Stem-Free Shoulder when used in hemi or total shoulder arthroplasty. The safety of the implant will be evaluated by monitoring the frequency and incidence of all kinds of adverse events. The performance will be determined by analyzing the implant survival, overall pain and functional performances (based on Constant \& Murley score and ASES score), subject quality of life (EuroQol EQ5D) and radiographic parameters (e.g. radiolucencies, osteolysis, component migration) of study subjects who received the Sidus Stem-Free Shoulder. The Sidus Stem-Free Shoulder is not approved for use in the US.
