Abstract
CORR Insights(®): external rotation immobilization for primary shoulder dislocation: a randomized controlled trial.
Highlights
Treatment of first-time anterior glenohumeral dislocations still elicits controversy and active investigation
In an Israeli study [4] of 51 subjects with a mean age of 20 years, 78% of whom were soldiers, no decrease in recurrent dislocation was noted with external rotation bracing
A recent meta-analysis [6] utilized pooled data from five randomized controlled trials and close to 500 patients, but did not demonstrate evidence of efficacy of external rotation bracing for reducing recurrent dislocation
