Anterior Shoulder Dislocation

This clinical trial will determine the outcome trajectories of common surgeries (arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage of a Hill-Sachs lesion, open Bankart, Latarjet) with post-operative rehabilitation and identification of prognostic factors among patients with acute or recurrent anterior shoulder instability with subcritical bone loss. The results of the study assist in optimizing time to return to military duty, work and sports, and patient-reported physical function for military personnel and civilians with traumatic anterior shoulder instability and 10-20% glenoid bone loss. This study will provide a critical clinical advancement of a previously unaddressed and common clinical scenario.

The goal of this prospective observational cohort study is to provide epidemiological and prognostic data from a defined urban population and to improve understanding of risk factors and long-term outcomes following first-time anterior shoulder dislocation in patients aged 16 years and older presenting to the Oslo Accident and Emergency Outpatient Clinic. The main questions the study aims to answer are: * What is the incidence of first-time anterior shoulder dislocations in the Oslo region? * What is the prevalence and extent of bipolar bone loss and soft tissue injuries measured by CT and MR after a first-time shoulder dislocation? * Does bone loss increase the risk of recurrent shoulder instability? * How do imaging findings and recurrence influence long-term shoulder function and quality of life? Participants will: * Undergo standard clinical evaluation and conventional radiographs as part of routine care and asked to participate and followed longitudinally * Be offered additional CT and MRI imaging to assess glenoid and humeral bone loss and to evaluate soft tissue injuries. * Complete electronic questionnaires (WOSI, EQ-5D-5L, pain score, Rowe score, return to sport/work) at 3 months, 1 year, 5 years, and 10 years. * Be invited to long-term follow-up, including radiographs at 10 years to evaluate signs of osteoarthritis.

Anterior shoulder dislocation is a pathology frequently encountered in emergency medicine. The success in reducing anterior shoulder dislocations depends on muscle relaxation, which is itself conditioned by the patient's pain and apprehension. However, there is no consensus on the optimal technique for reducing anterior shoulder dislocation or the analgesia associated with it. Analgesia with METHOXYFLURANE showed a greater reduction in post-traumatic pain compared to standard analgesic treatment and faster action of METHOXYFLURANE. A retrospective study which has compared analgesia with METHOXYFLURANE and analgesic sedation with PROPOFOL found a shoulder reduction success rate of 80% and a reduction in the average length of stay in the emergency department. Finally, the use of virtual reality in pain management is emerging in our practices by allowing pre- and per-procedure hypno-sedation-analgesia. However, the use of virtual reality headsets has not been studied in the management of anterior shoulder dislocation. The use of these two techniques could therefore limit the use of procedural sedation in the context of shoulder dislocation reduction.

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if a new rehabilitation protocol (apprehension-based training), leads to better recovery after shoulder dislocation among military personnel. Participants will be randomly allocated to apprehension-based training or standard physical therapy. In apprehension-based training participants will train to control their shoulder under progressively more unstable conditions. Standard physical therapy will be provided based on the clinical judgment of the treating physical therapist The primary hypothesis is that participants undergoing apprehension-based training will experience a more complete recovery of function, better shoulder-related quality of life, and incur less recurrent dislocations.
