Overview
Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the rehabilitation by use of a smartphone-app with the usual care of physical therapy in patients, 60 years and older, who underwent a primary shoulder arthroplasty.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
- is the outcome of rehabilitation with the app as good as the usual care?
- is the outcome for both types of shoulder arthroplasty similar?
- what is the usability of the app?.
Participants will
- have treatment according to the group they are allocated to
- fill in questionnaires at specific moments during the rehabilitation stage (0 - 3 months ) and at 1 year post-surgery

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
SHOULDER PAIN AND DISABILITY INDEX (SPADI)_baseline pre-operative
Time Frame: Prior to surgery
Content: 5 questions for the subscale pain and 8 questions for the disability subscale. Scoring: numeric rating scale from 1 to 10, with a maximum of 130. The total score is the sum of the sub-scores. Interpretation: The higher the score the more pain and disability. The lower the score, the better patients perceive their shoulder
SHOULDER PAIN AND DISABILITY INDEX (SPADI)
Time Frame: week 52
Content: 5 questions for the subscale pain and 8 questions for the disability subscale. Scoring: numeric rating scale from 1 to 10, with a maximum of 130. The total score is the sum of the sub-scores. Interpretation: The higher the score the more pain and disability. The lower the score, the better patients perceive their shoulder
SHOULDER PAIN AND DISABILITY INDEX (SPADI)_baseline post-operative
Time Frame: week 0
Content: 5 questions for the subscale pain and 8 questions for the disability subscale. Scoring: numeric rating scale from 1 to 10, with a maximum of 130. The total score is the sum of the sub-scores. Interpretation: The higher the score the more pain and disability. The lower the score, the better patients perceive their shoulder
