    A new classification system for reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) prostheses aids surgeons in selecting optimal designs. This system categorizes rTSA components, impacting biomechanics and clinical outcomes for better patient care.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopaedic Surgery
    • Biomechanical Engineering
    • Prosthetic Design

    Background:

    • Numerous reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) prosthesis designs exist globally.
    • Design variations in rTSA prostheses significantly influence biomechanics and clinical results.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a classification system for rTSA prostheses.
    • To standardize nomenclature for objective design categorization based on glenoid and humeral components.
    • To aid orthopaedic surgeons in selecting appropriate rTSA designs for specific clinical situations.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a classification system for rTSA designs.
    • Categorization of prostheses based on glenoid and humeral characteristics.
    • Analysis of the biomechanical impact of each classification on shoulder muscle length and deltoid wrapping.

    Main Results:

    • The proposed classification system objectively categorizes diverse rTSA designs.
    • Specific design classifications correlate with distinct changes in shoulder muscle length.
    • Deltoid wrapping is shown to be affected by different rTSA prosthesis classifications.

    Conclusions:

    • A standardized rTSA prosthesis classification system is proposed.
    • This system facilitates understanding of biomechanical consequences related to design choices.
    • The classification aids surgeons in optimizing rTSA selection for improved clinical outcomes.
