Immobilization in External Rotation
Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
* sustained an acute, first-time, traumatic anterior dislocation of the shoulder as defined by; i. Mechanism of abduction, external rotation ii. Sudden pain in the shoulder iii. Manipulative reduction required or iv. Radiograph documenting a dislocated joint
* willing to participate in follow-up for at least two years
Exclusion Criteria
* inability or unwillingness to comply with rehabilitative protocol or required follow-up assessments
* previous instability of the affected shoulder
* significant associated fracture (exception Hill Sachs or Bankart lesions)
* concomitant ipsilateral upper extremity injuries which may affect the patient's ability to participate in, or benefit from, a rehabilitative program
* a history of significant ligamentous laxity or demonstrated multi-directional instability of the contralateral shoulder
* neurovascular compromise of the affected limb
* a medical condition making the patient unable to wear a brace or sling
