Abstract:IntroductionThe most commonly recommended treatment for multidirectional instability (MDI) of the shoulder is exercise. Despite this recommendation, there is limited evidence to support the effectiveness of exercise. The aim of this paper is to describe a pilot randomised controlled trial comparing the effectiveness of 2 exercise programmes on outcomes of participants with MDI.Methods and analysisConsenting participants between 12 and 35 years, with non-traumatic MDI will be randomly allocated to participate i… Show more

“…Eligible participants were aged 12 to 35 years and had symptomatic glenohumeral joint subluxation or dislocation in >1 direction. 2,4,52 Diagnosis was based on a positive sulcus sign and a positive test (drawer test and/or apprehension test) for anterior and/or posterior instability. 52 Apprehension was the criterion for a positive instability test, not just pain or signs of laxity.…”

For people with MDI, 12 sessions of the Watson MDI program were more effective than the Rockwood program at 12- and 24-week follow-up. Registration: ACTRN12613001240730 (Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry).
