Clinical Trial Summary

The fracture of the proximal humerus represents 4% of the fractures encountered in clinics and it must be treated surgically. Thus, the aim of the surgical treatment is to maintain bone alignment, articular congruity, vascularization of the humeral head and provide a painless shoulder with satisfactory function.

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the potential benefits of an early rehabilitation program on shoulder function.
