Effects of surgical repair on active shoulder position sense and 3-dimensional reaching accuracy in a patient with anterior shoulder instability

Abstract The purpose of this report was to investigate whether a subject with anterior shoulder instability exhibited better active shoulder position sense and 3-dimensional (3-D) reaching accuracy after a surgical repair. The 19-year-old male subject underwent an open Bankart repair procedure for h...

Description
Summary:Abstract The purpose of this report was to investigate whether a subject with anterior shoulder instability exhibited better active shoulder position sense and 3-dimensional (3-D) reaching accuracy after a surgical repair. The 19-year-old male subject underwent an open Bankart repair procedure for his left shoulder followed by a standardized post-operative rehabilitation program. Shoulder position sense was examined with traditional passive matching and active positioning protocols. Reaching accuracy in space with the unrestricted arm motion was also examined. The subject was tested 5 months prior to the surgery and re-tested 6 months after the surgery. With the traditional passive matching protocol, shoulder position sense improved
