T. Andrew Israel MD
Mayo Clinic Health System Adult Reconstruction
Goals for you and your family
• Recognize shoulder replacement is a reliable operation
to improve quality of life
• Describe what to expect of the shoulder replacement
procedure.
• Discuss the risks of shoulder replacement surgery.

Goals of Your Shoulder Replacement
• Improve your quality of life by:
• Relieve your pain
• Improved motion
• Improved strength
• Better function
©2011 MFMER | slide-3
Shoulder Joint Replacement
Indications
• Bone on bone osteoarthritis
• Intact rotator cuff tendons
Shoulder Arthritis
• Loss of
cartilage leads
to narrowing
of the joint
space
©2011 MFMER | slide-5
Shoulder Arthritis
• As the
cartilage
wears, bone
spurs form
and the
shoulder
becomes stiff
©2011 MFMER | slide-6
Surgical Technique of Total Shoulder
Replacement
• Replaces the worn bony
surfaces with metal ball
and plastic socket
(glenoid)
• Restores shoulder motion
and stability
©2011 MFMER | slide-7
Hemiarthroplasty
• A metal ball and stem
go down into the
humerus.
• No plastic socket is
placed.
©2011 MFMER | slide-8
Reverse Total Shoulder
Indications
Replacement Components
• Completely torn rotator cuff with severe
arthritis
• Complex fractures
• Previous failed shoulder replacement
REVERSE TOTAL SHOULDER
• Socket and ball are
reversed
• Humeral head (ball)
becomes the socket
• Glenoid (socket)
becomes the ball
©2011 MFMER | slide-10
Surgical Technique
Incision
• The incision is made in the front of the shoulder
• Your surgeon will make the incision long
enough to see the joint area
• Your surgeon will use techniques to spare
muscle
• Surgical techniques continue to improve as
technology advances
©2011 MFMER | slide-11
Day of Surgery
• Your surgeon will meet you in the Surgical Prep and
Recovery area to initial your shoulder and answer final
questions.
• Family can wait with you in the Surgical Prep and
Recovery area.
• You will go to the Operating Room (OR). Surgery lasts
2 hours.
• You will then go to the recovery room for 1-2 hours.
©2011 MFMER | slide-12
After Surgery in the Hospital
Occupational Therapy is critical for a good outcome
• Therapy will visit after surgery to educate you on practicing
activities of daily living
• Wear an arm sling immobilizer full time for 6-8
weeks
• No forceful contraction of muscles such as
pushing up out of chair or bed.
• Follow the exercise program as instructed
©2011 MFMER | slide-13
Shoulder precautions
• Do not overdo it! Early overuse may result in severe
limitations of motion
• Do not lift anything heavier than a glass of water for the first 68 weeks
• Do not participate in contact sports or any repetitive heavy
lifting after your shoulder replacement.
• Avoid placing your arm in any extreme position for the first 68 weeks
©2011 MFMER | slide-14
Other Doctors in the hospital
• Additional Doctors take care of non-orthopedic issues (such
as high blood pressure or diabetes).
• If you have an Internal Medicine doctor here, they will see you
after surgery.
• If your regular doctor does not see patients in the hospital, a
Hospitalist will see you after surgery.
• If you are not getting a medication you think you should,
please ask.
©2011 MFMER | slide-15
Risks of Surgery
Anesthetic Complications
• Anesthesia providers meet with you the day of surgery.
• They discuss anesthetic options for postoperative pain relief.
• Nausea and vomiting are common but more serious side
effects or complications may occur.
• Please tell the anesthesia provider of any past experience with
anesthesia.
©2011 MFMER | slide-16
Risks of Surgery
Blood Clots
• Lower risk for blood clots with total shoulder
replacement
• Clots can go to the lungs and be fatal
• Your risk is reduced to <1% if treated with
medication (aspirin)
©2011 MFMER | slide-17
Blood Clot Prevention
• Enteric coated aspirin 325 mg twice a day while in hospital to
prevent blood clots. Continue at home for 3 weeks.
• SCDs (calf squeezers) are on in the hospital whenever you are
in bed.
• Exercising your legs and being up and walking promotes
blood flow.
©2011 MFMER | slide-18
Risks of Surgery
Infection
• You will get antibiotics at the time of surgery and for 24
hours after surgery.
• Surgeons, assistants and scrub techs wear
“spacesuits.”
• Using all precautions, risk of infection is ~1%.
• Infection may occur months or years after surgery.
• Infection may mean removal of your implants.
©2011 MFMER | slide-19
“ Spacesuits worn during surgery”
©2011 MFMER | slide-20
Risks of Surgery
Blood loss
• Bony surfaces bleed during surgery.
• There may be some bleeding after surgery.
• Your blood count will be checked each morning after
surgery.
• If you have symptoms from a low blood count, you may
need a blood transfusion.
©2011 MFMER | slide-21
Risks of Surgery
Medical Complications
• Surgery is a stress to your body.
• Heart and lung problems, stroke, stomach problems,
constipation - all may occur.
• A physical with your regular doctor and an EKG are
required before surgery.
• Despite precautions, unforeseen medical complications
may still occur.
©2011 MFMER | slide-22
Risks of Surgery
Dislocation
• This is an artificial joint and may slip out of joint.
• If it does dislocate, this often requires a trip to the
hospital to have the shoulder put back in place.
• You may be required to wear a brace if it dislocates.
• Multiple dislocations may require revision surgery to fix
the problem.
©2011 MFMER | slide-23
Risks of Surgery
Need for Revision
• We encourage patients to wait as long as possible
before replacement.
• Implants wear with time..
• Wear rate is about 1% a year
• Revision surgery may involve changing the plastic or
changing one or all metal parts.
• Revision surgery is more challenging with a more
difficult recovery.
©2011 MFMER | slide-24
Recovery time
• 3-4 months: ‘normal’ activity
• 6 months: ‘normal’ endurance
• 12 months: maximal recovery
• Focus on exercises for movement and then
strength
• Getting back to work is individual - check with
your surgeon
©2011 MFMER | slide-25
Summary
• Shoulder replacement is a reliable operation to improve
quality of life with less pain, improved motion, strength
and better function.
• As with any operation, there are associated risks.
• All of the precautions we take are to minimize risk and
to provide for a “routine” operation

JOINT PREP
Social Sevices
©2011 MFMER | slide-66
Roles of Social Services and Case Management
in Your Care
Work in teams of Social Workers and RN Case
Managers to assist with:
• Transition Planning
• Insurance and Funding Issues
• Advance Directives for Healthcare
• Counseling and Advocacy
©2011 MFMER | slide-67
Insurance-Prior Notification/Authorization
• Prior to surgery, you will need to notify your
insurance company of your surgery plans.
• Also make sure the clinic/hospital has your
correct insurance information for preauthorization purposes.
• Prior authorization for surgery can take
anywhere from 15-30 days to process, so call
your insurer as soon as you know your
scheduled surgery date.
©2011 MFMER | slide-68
Insurance-Denial
• If for any reason your insurer denies your prior
authorization request, the hospital will be
notified and we will contact you to let you know
your request was denied.
©2011 MFMER | slide-69
Insurance-Notification
• Notification of elective surgery is NOT required for those
who have only Medicare as their insurer. Medicare
rules do not require pre-authorization of elective
surgery.
• Many Medicare Advantage plans and private insurance
companies do require notification of elective surgery by
both the surgeon’s office and the patient himself.
Although this is not the case for every Medicare
Advantage plan and private insurance plan, play it safe
by notifying your Medicare Advantage plan or private
insurance plan yourself about your surgery plan.
©2011 MFMER | slide-70
Insurance-Contact Once You are Admitted
• Once you are an inpatient in the hospital, your
RN case manager will monitor your approved
stay days and be a contact person for your
insurance company for any questions or
concerns.
©2011 MFMER | slide-71
Counseling and Advocacy
• Surgery and hospitalization are stressful
life events.
• Meeting your emotional needs is important
to all staff at Mayo Clinic Health System.
• If you have any concerns about your care
or wish to talk to someone, please let your
nurse know.
©2011 MFMER | slide-72
Transition Planning-Length of Stay
• Length of stay in the hospital is decreasing
nation-wide.
• Your insurance company will authorize days of
stay based on your medical needs.
• The usual hospital stay for joint replacement
surgery ranges from less than a day to four
days depending on your needs.
©2011 MFMER | slide-73
Transition Planning
• Once you are in the hospital, a Social Worker or
RN Case Manager will meet with you to discuss
your transition plan.
• You, your support people, doctor, and
therapists will help determine what transition
plan will best suit your needs.
©2011 MFMER | slide-74
Transitional Care Options
• Home with outpatient services
• Home with Home Care
• Skilled Nursing Facilities
• Transitional Care Units or Swing Beds
©2011 MFMER | slide-75
Transitional Care Options-Home with
Outpatient Services
• Home with outpatient services is an option for
the person who is generally in good health, has
someone available to stay with them the
majority of the time for a few weeks, has
progressed sufficiently in therapies during
hospitalization, and is self-motivated to perform
their exercises at home on a consistent basis.
©2011 MFMER | slide-76
Transitional Care Options-Home Care
• Home with Home Care services is an option for
the person who has a skilled nursing need such
as complex dressing changes or IV antibiotics.
Physical Therapy is available through home
care agencies but, generally the maximum
amount of home therapy they can provide is 2
times a week. In addition to having a skilled
nursing or skilled therapy need, home care also
requires that you are “homebound,” meaning
leaving your home requires a great deal of
effort.
©2011 MFMER | slide-77
Transitional Care-Skilled Nursing Facilities
• Skilled Nursing Facilities are area nursing homes that
offer short-term rehabilitation stays along with their longterm care. This is an option for the person who requires
more medical care than family or friends can safely
provide.
• After shoulder surgery, you may not have any skilled
physical therapy or occupational therapy for an
extended period after your surgery. As a result, you may
not qualify for Medicare or your private insurance to pay
for your nursing home stay.
• Supportive care like help with bathing, dressing, meal
preparation, etc. is not paid for by Medicare.
©2011 MFMER | slide-78
Transitional Care-Swing Beds
• Transition Care Units or Swing Beds are located in a
rural hospital with care provided by hospital staff and
physician. This is an option for the person who has a
more skilled nursing care need. Examples would
include complex dressing changes or difficult to control
blood sugar levels or a pre-existing medical issue such
as cardiac disease. Swing Beds can also provide more
intensive rehabilitation therapies than the Skilled
Nursing Facilities.
©2011 MFMER | slide-79
Insurance and Medicare Coverage for
Transitional Care Options
• Home with Home Care-Medicare
Supplements and private insurance
companies vary in what they cover and how
much they cover; it’s a good idea to call
these insurers to find out the details on what
and how much they will cover for each
transition care option.
©2011 MFMER | slide-80
Funding Options-Home Care
• Medicare will pay for home care services if you
are homebound and have a skilled nursing or
skilled therapy need. Medicare will not pay for
home care services such as help with meals,
shopping, personal care, or housekeeping
services.
©2011 MFMER | slide-81
Funding Options-Transitional Care Skilled
Nursing
• Skilled Nursing Facilities-Medicare requires a skilled
nursing and/or therapy need plus a three overnight
inpatient status stay in the hospital to cover a skilled
rehabilitation stay in a nursing facility.
• Some Medicare Advantage plans do not require the
three overnight stay.
• Private insurance coverage varies tremendously. It is
important to check your benefits and which facilities are
available to you under your plan.
©2011 MFMER | slide-82
Funding Options-Swing Bed
• Swing Bed-Medicare requires a skilled nursing
and/or therapy need plus a three overnight
inpatient status stay in the hospital to cover a
skilled rehabilitation stay in a swing bed.
• Not all Medicare Advantage Plans will cover
swing bed stays. Check your insurance plan to
find out if swing bed is an option for you.
• Private insurance coverage for swing bed stays
varies greatly. Check with your insurance
company regarding this.
©2011 MFMER | slide-83
Advance Directives for Healthcare
• What are advance directives?
• What are the 2 types of advanced directives?
©2011 MFMER | slide-84
Declaration to Physicians or Living Wills
• Describes the kind of life-sustaining care you would
want only if you had a terminal condition or were in a
persistent vegetative state
• Living wills direct your physician regarding lifesustaining treatment and use and withdrawal of
feeding tubes
• Living wills do not give authority to anyone to make
health care decisions on your behalf
©2011 MFMER | slide-85
Power of Attorney for Health Care
• Your health care agent can tell your physician what
kind of care you would want in all types of health
decisions, not just concerning life-sustaining
treatment
• You appoint an agent to make all health care
decisions for you in collaboration with your physician
• Guardianship can usually be avoided if a health care
power of attorney has been completed.
©2011 MFMER | slide-86
Who Can Help you Complete an Advance Directive?
• Mayo Clinic Health System Social Services
• Mayo Clinic Health System Spiritual Care
Chaplains
• Your personal attorney
©2011 MFMER | slide-87
Safekeeping of Advance Directives
• Store the original document in a safe place.
• Give a copy of the document to family
members, especially those named in the
document.
• Bring a copy of the document to the clinic or
hospital. It will be scanned into your medical
record.
