Background: The aim of this study is to investigate the pattern of changes in activities of daily living (ADLs), sleep disturbance, and pain in the early postoperative period following a total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) Methods: Prospective data on patterns of limitation in ADLs, sleep disturbance, and pain were collected from patients undergoing elective TSA preoperatively and at specific time points postoperatively (2, 6, and 12 weeks). At each time point, patients were asked regarding the major limitation affecting their shoulder. Limitations in ADLs and sleep disturbances were scored on a 3-point scale (0 = unable to do, 3 = no difficulty) modeled after the ADL which require active external rotation score and visual analog scale scores were used for pain. Patient responses were analyzed with respect to patient factors (demographics, arm dominance, function of opposite arm, and ambulation status), and living situation (alone, or with caregiver) Results: Shoulder pain (43%) and inability to perform ADLs (38%) were the 2 most commonly reported limitations prior to undergoing TSA. Patients noticed progressive improvements in pain with 37% reductions in visual analog scale scores at 2 weeks and 67% reduction at 3 months. At 2 weeks after TSA, sleep disturbances were the most disabling issue in 33% of the cohort, with considerable improvements (104%) in sleep scores at 3 months compared to pre-op. The ADLs involving forward elevation and working at the waist level improved considerably between 6 weeks and 3 months, but activities involving rotation including reaching behind the back, across the chest, and use of strength showed mild improvements by 3 months Conclusion: This prospective study demonstrates the chronology of improvements in pattern of limitations experienced by patients with respect to pain, sleep, and ADLs in the early postoperative period after TSA. Majority of patients can expect to have 2/3 resolution of pain, improved sleep, and improvement in ADLs involving forward elevation and waist level function by 3 months |
