Overview
reverse shoulder replacement surgery is performed to improve the functionality and reduce pain of the affected shoulder. Now, it is necessary to carry out an appropriate rehabilitation process to optimize surgical results. The lack of health resources makes it essential for the patient to work autonomously once hospital rehabilitation is completed. But lack of adherence is one of the main barriers to recovery
