Evaluation of Surgical Positioning in Arthroscopic Shoulder Stabilization

• Conditions: Shoulder Dislocation
• Interventions: Procedure: Beach Chair Position; Procedure: Lateral Decubitus Position

• Registration Number: NCT05160909
• Lead Sponsor: Rothman Institute Orthopaedics

Brief Summary

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.
