Brief Summary

This is a multicenter, prospective, non-controlled post market surveillance study. The objectives of this study are to confirm the safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the Zimmer Biomet Shoulder Arthroplasty systems in primary anatomic shoulder arthroplasty and its instrumentation. Safety of the systems will be assessed by monitoring the frequency and incidence of adverse events. The performance and clinical benefits will be evaluated by assessment of the overall pain and functional performance, qualify of life, and radiographic parameters of all enrolled study subjects.
