Shoulder fracture check after recent injury
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests a simple set of questions and physical checks to see if they can safely rule out a broken shoulder bone after a recent injury, which may help avoid unnecessary X-rays.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You have had a shoulder injury within the last 7 days.

This trial compares two techniques used in the emergency room to gently guide a dislocated shoulder back into its normal position. It aims to see which method is quicker and less painful for patients with a simple shoulder dislocation.
This trial compares non-surgical care with two different surgical fixation methods for a displaced two-part shoulder (upper arm) fracture. It aims to see which approach leads to the best recovery and function.
This study uses ultrasound to check for hidden shoulder problems in people recovering from a hand injury. It may help understand if hand trauma affects the shoulder even when you don't notice it.
This study tests a computer program that helps doctors spot bone injuries on X-rays. If you are an adult with a recent injury and an X-ray, the program may help find fractures more accurately.
