Surgical ProcedureThe procedure to replace your shoulder joint with an artificial device usually takes about 2 hours.

After surgery, you will be moved to the recovery room, where you will remain for several hours while your recovery from anesthesia is monitored. After you wake up, you will be taken to your hospital room.
