Conservative Versus Operative - First Time Shoulder Dislocations (NCT05532150)
Conservative Versus Operative Management of First Time Shoulder Dislocations
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
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.
