Filter by:This study is a randomized controlled trial using Duke patients to test, compared to the standard of care, a questionnaire and statistical model used to determine how patient preference regarding shoulder pain, physical limitations, physical therapy, recovery period, prognosis, and cost impact choice of surgical versus non-surgical intervention. Phase 1 of this study is the initial testing of the instrument and involves a small group of up to 10 individuals who will partake in one-on-one interviews while completing the Shoulder Injury Survey to provide feedback. In Phase 2 of this study, 200 subjects will be randomized to receive either the Decision Tool or the standard Information on Shoulder Dislocation
The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcome of this rare injury with special emphasis on associated pathologies. Additionally, we aimed to develop an algorithm for the diagnosis of associated pathologies following LEH.
The shoulder is the joint that most commonly suffers dislocation, and anterior instability is the most frequent form. Arthroscopic repair is the gold standard for the treatment of recurrent shoulder dislocation. The most commonly used technique is the attachment of glenoid labrum-ligament complex (GLLC) with knotted anchors. In 2001, Thal introduced the concept of tissue fixation using knotless anchors and its applicability for GLLC lesions. Some researchers have published studies using knotless anchors and have compared this technique to the use of knotted anchors, demonstrating similar reconstruction of labral height and functional outcomes, while the recurrence rate is still contradictory. To date, there are no prospective randomized controlled clinical trial comparing these two techniques of GLLC repairs. The researchers aims to compare clinical outcomes and imaging evaluation of patients undergoing GLLC repair arthroscopically with the use of absorbable knotless and knotted anchors.
To compare the results and efficacy of the self-assisted Boss-Holzach-Matter maneuver for anterior shoulder dislocation and the Spaso method performed by a physician.
The objective of this study is to investigate arthroscopic treatments of recurrent anterior shoulder instability. Functional outcomes of arthroscopic anatomic glenoid reconstruction with bone graft will be compared to the gold standard, arthroscopic Bankart repair. The investigators hypothesize that arthroscopic anatomic glenoid reconstruction with bone graft will provide better functional outcomes and decreased risk of recurrent dislocation/subluxation. This will be a single center, double blinded, randomized controlled trial performed in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. The primary outcome measured will be the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability (WOSI) score. Secondary outcomes will be subluxation, re-dislocation, and range of motion. A minimum of 200 patients will be enrolled in the study as determined by sample size calculation. Routine radiographs as well as a pre-operative CT with 3D reconstruction and MRI are obtained for all patients. The patients will then undergo a clinical examination and complete a variety of functional and quality of life surveys. Randomization will be based on surgeon skill. Two groups (Bankart repair and anatomic glenoid reconstruction) will be selected with 100 subjects each. Postoperatively, patients in both groups will follow a standardized rehabilitation protocol. The patient will follow-up with the attending surgeon at 2 weeks post-operatively for a wound check. At the 3, 6, 12, and 24 month visits the patient will again undergo the structured clinical examination conducted by a physiotherapist who is blinded to the patients' treatment group. The patient will also complete the questionnaires at each of these follow-up appointments. Complications, and subluxation/dislocation events will be documented at each follow-up evaluation. On the basis of a clinical examination and patient history, the surgeon will diagnose recurrent instability and categorize it as a traumatic or atraumatic subluxation or dislocation.
Shoulder dislocation is a common clinical presentation in the emergency department, comprising about 50 percent of all major joint dislocations. In the standart management of shoulder dislocations physicians generally need to see pre and post reduction x ray graphics. Ultrasonography is harmless way of evaluating shoulder and may be used in the management of the shoulder dislocations instead of the x ray evaluations.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate, after surgery for chronic anterior shoulder instability using a Latarjet technique with positioning of the bone block via an SEM positioning tool, the value of the contribution of a shoulder scan at 3 months post surgery in the decision to return to activity early as conditioned by the quality of the bone block consolidation.
This study is designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of a supervised neuromuscular exercise program versus a standard home exercise program for patients with post-traumatic symptomatic anterior shoulder instability. Participants with at least one week of symptom duration are randomly assigned to either a 12-week structured, supervised Shoulder Instability Neuromuscular EXercise (SINEX) program versus a standard HOMe EXercise (HOMEX) program. The H1-hypothesis is that the SINEX program results in a greater increase in quality of life and physical function than the HOMEX program at the primary endpoint at three months follow-up from baseline
Long term follow-up of patients those who underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair using MG-1 for dislocation of shoulder to evaluate anchor bone hole condition and ossification.
Shoulder dislocations are quite common, the prevalence over a lifetime being estimated at 2% in the general population. In young patients, recurrence after a primary dislocation is also common (~60%) and multiple recurrent episodes can cause significant disability over time. Following initial reduction of the joint, the traditional treatment for primary shoulder dislocations has been immobilization in a sling, with the arm in a position of adduction and internal rotation. The length of the immobilization period is controversial, however most authors would recommend between three to six weeks in a sling followed by several months of rehabilitation to include range of motion and strengthening exercises. The clinical course of patients after this approach has been extensively investigated. Of particular interest is the relatively high rate of recurrent instability in young patients, reported to be between 17 and 96%. A prospective randomized trial is needed to determine whether in young patients (16-30 yrs of age) following reduction of a first-time traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation, does EMERGENT (<4 hours post reduction) immobilization of the affected shoulder in external rotation reduce the rate of recurrent instability experienced within 12 months versus emergent immobilization in a traditional internal rotation sling? Eligible patients will be randomly allocated to the sling or ER brace. The results of this study will provide the best evidence for choosing emergent immobilization for shoulder dislocations.
