Training program for shoulder stability after surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a training program that combines physical exercises and mental strategies to help people recover better after shoulder surgery for repeated dislocations. It aims to improve your shoulder stability and confidence, and may help you get back to normal activities more smoothly.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had a shoulder dislocation caused by injury, and an MRI shows a tear in the labrum (the rim of tissue around the shoulder socket).
- You are between 18 and 67 years old.
- You are planning to have shoulder surgery called arthroscopic Bankart repair (a minimally invasive procedure to fix the torn labrum).
- You understand spoken and written Dutch, and you can give informed consent (agree to take part after full explanation).
- You have a positive 'apprehension sign' — your shoulder feels like it might come out when moved in a certain way during a physical exam.

This study tests whether adding brain-training exercises to standard physical therapy helps people recover better after surgery for shoulder instability. It may improve how well the shoulder works and how quickly you return to normal activities.
This study tests a new exercise program for people with non-traumatic shoulder instability (looseness without injury). It focuses on improving how well your rotator cuff muscles control shoulder rotation.
This trial studies surgical treatment for people whose shoulder keeps dislocating forward (anteriorly). It may help by choosing a surgery plan for the amount of bone loss seen on scans, while excluding people with certain medical or instability patterns.
This study tests whether virtual reality rehabilitation helps people recover after shoulder surgery. It focuses on three shoulder conditions: instability, rotator cuff repair, and frozen shoulder.
This study compares different surgical techniques to fix a shoulder that keeps dislocating forward. It aims to find the best approach to stabilize the joint and reduce future dislocations.
This study tests a new rehab program after a shoulder stabilization surgery called Latarjet. It may help you recover better if you have had a dislocated shoulder and need this surgery.
