Shoulder dislocation study for first-time injuries
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Hormones & metabolism, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study follows people who have had a first-time shoulder dislocation to learn more about the injury patterns, how the shoulder moves, and what happens over time. It aims to help improve treatments for future patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 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 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.
This study compares a new type of training focused on controlling shoulder 'apprehension' (the feeling that your shoulder might pop out) with standard physical therapy. It is for military personnel who have had a shoulder dislocation and may help you regain trust in your shoulder without surgery.
This study looks at treatment options for people who have had a first shoulder dislocation in the last 3 months. It may help find the best way to keep the shoulder from dislocating again and improve recovery.
This study follows people over age 40 who have their first traumatic “front” shoulder dislocation to learn what injuries happen and how they can be identified. It may help doctors better understand what to check for after this kind of injury.
