Filter by:Randomized controlled double-blind study aimed at studying the contribution of cognitive-behavioral therapy in the treatment of shoulder apprehension. Comparison of 2 physiotherapy techniques in the context of shoulder instability. Control group: rehabilitation physiotherapy by physiotherapist using conventional technique alone. Intervention group: rehabilitation physiotherapy by physiotherapist according to conventional technique, with the addition of techniques from cognitive-behavioral therapies.
The purpose of the study is to see if there is a connection between a proximal humerus fracture dislocation direction and the likelihood of developing avascular necrosis. Utilizing a retrospective cohort from the last ten years we hope to bring consenting patients back for a single visit to have x-rays and complete patient reported outcome measures to assess for evidence of avascular necrosis.
The primary objective of the pilot study is to assess the feasibility of a definitive trial to determine the effect of arthroscopic soft tissue stabilization vs. non-operative management on the risk of recurrent anterior dislocation rates and functional outcomes following in patients presenting with a first-time dislocation (FTD) over a 24-month period.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the functional shoulder recovery of patients with recurrent shoulder dislocations at 24 months when treated with either arthroscopic capsuloligamentous repair (Bankart Procedure +/- Remplissage) or coracoid transfer (Latarjet procedure).
Anterior shoulder dislocations occur when the humeral head translates anterior to the glenoid cause pain, stiffness, and glenoid bone loss. If left untreated, the risk of recurrence can be up to or greater than 90%. The only surgically modifiable factor to reduce the risk of recurrence is the glenoid bone loss (GBL), where surgeons have the ability to recreate the shape of the glenoid and reduce the risk of recurrent shoulder dislocations. Established boney procedures for shoulder instability include the Latarjet and free bone block procedures, such as the Anatomic Glenoid Reconstruction (AGR). The Latarjet is well known for its lower rate of recurrent instability, but raises concerns due to under-appreciated complications rates. The AGR is a newer surgical approach that has garnered attention for its low rate of recurrent instability and complication profile. Both treatments can reduce pain, increase function following surgery and reduce the risk of recurrent instability. However, these two established approaches have yet to be directly compared and studied on a larger scale. The purpose of this randomized control trial is to compare clinical and radiographic outcomes pre- and post-operatively between the Latarjet to the AGR.
Anterior shoulder instability is a chronic condition that occurs after an anteromedial dislocation. Its prevalence is high in athletes but has been little studied in the armed forces. In general, patients with a first episode of dislocation have a 1 in 2 chance of experiencing at least one recurrence. The more recurrences there are, the more damage there is to the joint and the greater the disability for the patient. The decree determining the medical aptitude of military personnel emphasizes the need to have recourse to a specialized consultation to determine the classification of the soldier after a first episode of dislocation. In the absence of data collected specifically in the military population, classification is based on the surgeon's experience and extrapolation of results obtained in the general population.
Hemiplegic shoulder pain (HSP) is a common and disabling complication following a stroke, and it may affect the quality of life. It often occurs following two to three months of stroke. Upper limb impairment is seen in 90% of patients affected by stroke. Numerous causes have been implicated in developing HSP in stroke. This includes muscle flaccidity around the shoulder joint, shoulder subluxation, shoulder-hand syndrome, increased muscle tone, impingement syndrome, frozen shoulder, brachial plexus injury, and the thalamic syndrome. Muscle paresis, abnormal muscle tone and loss of proprioception following stroke may render the shoulder complex unstable and therefore prone to misalignment. In recent years, high-intensity laser therapy (HILT) has been considered as a treatment option for shoulder pain. HILT increases microcirculation and tissue regeneration and lowers edema, inflammation, and pain with its photomechanical, thermal, electrical, and bio stimulating effects in deep tissues that cannot be reached with LILT. It has some advantages over LILT, i.e., having higher power, greater tissue penetration capacity to deep tissues, the short emission time, and long rest periods preventing heat accumulation. In recent studies, effectiveness of HILT has been shown in the treatment of subacromial impingement syndrome, rotator cuff tendinopathy, and frozen shoulder.
There is no consensus regarding whether rehabilitation or surgical stabilization leads to optimized outcomes for treatment of primary anterior shoulder dislocations. This prospective, randomized controlled trial therefore aims to compare arthroscopic Bankart repair versus physical therapy for the treatment of primary anterior shoulder dislocations.
Describe the purpose and objective(s) of the study, specific aims, and/or research questions/hypotheses: The purpose of this Randomized Controlled Trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) training with standard care of physical therapy versus the standard care of Physical Therapy alone and its effect on shoulder function and patient outcomes in military cadets recovering from shoulder stabilization surgery. We hypothesize after 6 weeks of BFR training will contribute to 13 (76%) or more participants will achieve scores within one standard deviation of normative values for isometric strength and functional tests at six months following shoulder stabilization surgery. Furthermore, we hypothesize that 14 (82%) or more participants will report improved patientreported outcomes as determined by the minimal clinical difference (MCD) at 12 weeks and six months post-operatively. Objective 1: To evaluate the effectiveness of blood flow restriction (BFR) training on shoulder isometric strength, as measured by a digital handheld dynamotor following shoulder stabilization surgery in military cadets. Objective 2: To evaluate the effectiveness of blood flow restriction (BFR) training on shoulder range of motion, as measured by a digital inclinometer, following shoulder stabilization surgery in military cadets. Objective 3: To evaluate the effectiveness of blood flow restriction (BFR) training on shoulder function as measured by the Closed Kinetic Chain Upper Extremity Stability Test (CKCUEST), Seated Shot-Put Test (SSPT), and Upper Quarter Y-Balance Test (UQYBT), following shoulder stabilization surgery in military cadets. Objective 4: To evaluate the effectiveness of BFR training on shoulder pain, measured by a numerical pain rating scale, following shoulder stabilization surgery in military cadets. Objective 5: To evaluate the effectiveness of a BFR training on patient-reported outcomes, measured by Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE), Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI), and the Quick Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) following shoulder stabilization surgery in military cadets. Aim 1:To identify whether BFR with Physical Therapy is more effective at increasing shoulder strength than therapy alone following shoulder stabilization surgery. We hypothesize that the BFR with Physical Therapy group will be more effective at increasing shoulder strength than the Physical Therapy group without BFR following shoulder stabilization surgery. Aim 2:To identify whether BFR with Physical Therapy is more effective at increasing shoulder function than therapy alone following shoulder stabilization surgery. We hypothesize that the BFR with Physical Therapy group will be more effective at increasing shoulder function than the Physical Therapy group without BFR following shoulder stabilization surgery.
Background: Glenohumeral instability is a highly prevalent pathology; however, there is great controversy in its definition. Traditionally, structural problems such as labral injury or bone loss in the glenoid cavity were considered the main causes; but recently, it has been seen that motor control plays a very relevant role. This means that currently, there is a disparity of action protocols and the treatment of this pathology is a great challenge. Aim: The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a supervised multicomponent therapeutic exercise program in reducing multivariable fatigue in patients with instability of the glenohumeral joint. Methods: A single-blind randomized controlled trial will be carried out, in which 12 adult patients who have suffered at least one episode of glenohumeral instability in the last year will be recruited, who will be randomized to the intervention group, which will carry out a multicomponent therapeutic exercise program supervised by physiotherapists (MoveUS Program); or to the control group, which will receive the usual care. All subjects will be evaluated at baseline, mid-treatment and at the end. In these evaluations, range of movement, maximum peak of isometric force, kinematic, physiological and psychometric fatigue, return to activity, motor control and number of recurrences will be assessed; as well as the quality of life measured through the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index, which will be the main outcome variable. A multivariate analysis will be performed through a statistical program. Discussion: This study aims to determine if therapeutic exercise supervised by physiotherapists is capable of reducing multivariable fatigue, reducing the number of recurrences and improving quality of life; to be able to implement it in the future in public and private centers.
