NCT04520087
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographic results after surgical treatment with implant-free allograft in the treatment of Anterior Shoulder Dislocation and to assess the safety of the surgery.
NCT03424421
The arthroscopic subscapular sling procedure is a new technique for shoulder stabilization, which has been developed in human cadaveric studies by Klungsøyr et al, but has yet to be tested clinically. The procedure stabilizes the shoulder by using a semitendinosus graft that makes a new labrum and a sling around the subscapular tendon. Extensive biomechanical robotic testing of the procedure shows significant less translation and thus better stability of the humeral head with the sling compared to a normal Bankart repair. The investigators consider the biomechanical results after robotic testing sufficient to advocate a planned pilot study in humans. In this pilot study the clinical and radiological results of the sling will be investigated in a small number of cases. The safety of the subscapular sling procedure will be assessed. This studies results are expected to be a further step towards implementation of the sling procedure as a surgical option for shoulder instability.

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.

In this paper we describe and evaluate the results of the Noergaard technique through a retrospective analysis of patients admitted and treated for anterior shoulder dislocation at the ED of Copenhagen University Hospital Hvidovre, Denmark, in a 1-year period.
NCT02787395
Anterior dislocation of the shoulder (glenohumeral joint) is one of the most prevalent dislocations. Following a first dislocation recurrence rates of up to 80% have been reported. Many patients will seek medical assistance for reduction of the shoulder after each of these recurrent dislocations. The investigators describe the results of reduction of anterior glenohumeral dislocation using a modified self manipulated Milch technique that can be performed by the patients themselves after simple guidance and demonstration. This method is directed to patients who are not willing or cannot have surgical stabilization and may be in a place where medical assistance is not available.
NCT00196560
The purpose of this study is to determine whether immobilizing the affected shoulder of first time anterior shoulder dislocation patients in external rotation (vs immobilization in traditional internal rotation) reduces the rate of recurrent dislocations experienced in 24 months.
