Details and patient eligibility

About

The purpose of this study is to prospectively determine whether intra-operative factors, complications and post-operative outcomes differ between beach chair and lateral decubitus surgical positioning for patients receiving arthroscopic shoulder stabilization (anterior or posterior) due to shoulder instability.

Enrollment: 556 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

-Any patient undergoing arthroscopic labral repair due to shoulder instability, with or without concomitant debridement.

Exclusion criteria

• Revision stabilization surgery
• No previous Bankart repairs, labral repairs, capsulorrhaphy, or Latarjet
• Multidirectional shoulder instability
• Concomitant rotator cuff repair, biceps tenodesis/tenotomy, HAGL repair
• Isolated SLAP repair/labral repair in association with mechanism other than -instability (eg: overhead athletes) open procedures for instability
