Abstract
BACKGROUND:
Shoulder instability is a common problem affecting young adults. Stabilization surgery followed by physiotherapy rehabilitation has been shown to reduce the chance of further episodes of shoulder dislocation and to improve quality of life in patients who sustain a shoulder dislocation as a result of a high collision trauma, but it is unclear if surgical intervention is beneficial for patients with atraumatic shoulder instability who have structural damage at the shoulder. The aim of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to determine if the addition of surgical intervention to physiotherapy rehabilitation improves outcomes for patients with atraumatic shoulder instability who have sustained soft tissue damage at their joint.
DISCUSSION:
This trial will have a direct and immediate impact on clinical decision making by establishing if patients presenting with soft tissue shoulder damage associated with atraumatic shoulder instability should be referred for stabilization surgery before commencing physiotherapy rehabilitation in order to ensure optimal outcome. This in turn will ensure effective, efficient use of scarce health resources to manage this common often disabling musculoskeletal condition.
Resumen
ANTECEDENTES:
La inestabilidad de hombro es un problema común que afecta a los adultos jóvenes. la cirugía de estabilización seguida de rehabilitación de fisioterapia se ha demostrado para reducir el riesgo de nuevos episodios de luxación de hombro y para mejorar la calidad de vida en los pacientes que sufren una dislocación del hombro como resultado de un alto el trauma colisión, pero no está claro si la intervención quirúrgica es beneficioso para los pacientes con la inestabilidad del hombro atraumática que tienen daño estructural en el hombro. El objetivo de este ensayo clínico controlado aleatorio es determinar si la adición de una intervención quirúrgica para la rehabilitación de fisioterapia mejora los resultados para los pacientes con inestabilidad del hombro no traumática que han sufrido daño de tejidos blandos en su conjunto.
DISCUSIÓN:
Esta prueba tendrá un impacto directo e inmediato en la toma de decisiones clínicas, estableciendo si los pacientes que presenten daños de tejidos blandos del hombro asociada a la inestabilidad del hombro no traumática debe ser sometida a una cirugía de estabilización antes de comenzar la rehabilitación de fisioterapia con el fin de garantizar resultados óptimos. Esto a su vez garantizar un uso efectivo y eficiente de los escasos recursos de salud para tratar esta enfermedad musculoesquelética con frecuencia discapacitante común
