Non-operative Management of Shoulder Instability

Expert Strategies for Clinicians

Course Overview

Non-operative management following a shoulder subluxation or dislocation remains a challenging and complex task. This course introduces a clinical instability framework that addresses the three clinical dilemmas of assessment, diagnosis and shared decision-making of operative or non-operative management. It is designed to accompany the clinical concepts journal article published in the Journal of Athletic Training in 2023 with co-author Prof Timothy Uhl, University of Kentucky (you can download the paper from the introduction lecture or click below to be emailed the clinical paper).
