About this trial
The primary objective of this study is to examine the optimization of Reverse Shouder Arthroplasty implant position between GPS and conventional techniques. The secondary objective is to assess the effect of implant position using GPS vs. conventional techniques on ROM and patient reported outcomes. Long-term follow-up to 10 years with minimum 2 year follow-up for patients.

Primary outcomes
SST-12
Shoulder Simple Test (SST) - 12 questions with yes/no responses that measure shoulder pain and function from a patient's perspective - 12 yes corresponds to 100%
SPADI
Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) -13 questions assessing about pain scale (5 questions) and disability scale (8 questions) where 0 indicates no pain/no difficulty and 10 indicates worst pain imaginable/so difficult it requires help while performin these activities
Constant
Constant Shoulder Score - 100 points scale about pain, Activities of daily living, Strength test, and Range of Motions questions about shoulder where 100 % corresponds to the highest pain
ASES
American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Score (ASES) - 100 points scale about shoulder pain and performance evaluation in activities of daily living where 100 indicates the best shoulder condition
