Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Surgery - TSA-group
Other interventions - Exercise-group

Experimental: RSA-group - Surgery

Experimental: Exercise-group - Exercise


Treatment: Surgery: TSA-group
Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty followed by standard rehabilitation.

Other interventions: Exercise-group
The exercise-group will attend a 12-week exercise program with one weekly physiotherapist-supervised session supplemented with two weekly sessions of home-based exercises. Utilisation of a predefined training protocol describing procedures and content of each session secure uniformity and standardisation of the intervention. The exercise program consists of two warm-up exercises and five exercises that target shoulder range of motion and muscle strength. Furthermore, a link to a video, informing about glenohumeral osteoarthritis, the role of exercise and exercise related pain, will be sent to all patients in the exercise-group. The physiotherapists delivering the exercise intervention are not otherwise related to the trial.
