APPROACH DIFFERENCES OF ORTHOPEDICS AND EMERGENCY MEDICINE PHYSICIANS IN CURRENT TREATMENT PRACTICES OF ACUTE TRAUMATIC FIRST TIME ANTERIOR SHOULDER DISLOCATION

Abstract

Objective Numerous techniques for the reduction of anterior glenohumeral joint dislocations have been described. However, there is no consensus on the best technique for reducing a dislocated glenohumeral joint. This study aimed to evaluate the approach of emergency specialists and orthopedic surgeons in the treatment of acute traumatic first-time anterior shoulder dislocation. Material and Methods Data used in this cross-sectional study were obtained through a web-based survey from the Turkish Orthopedics and Traumatology Association mail group and Emergency Medicine Physicians Association of Turkey mail group. All orthopedic surgeons and emergency medicine physicians who were registered in the database received an information mail regarding the aim of the questionnaire and a link to the online survey form (Google Forms, Alphabet Inc., Mountain View, CA). The survey consisted of 13 questions, which are shown with their corresponding answer options. The current practices regarding the management of acute traumatic first-time anterior shoulder dislocation among orthopedic surgeons and emergency medicine physicians in Turkey were evaluated. Results A total of 152 orthopedic surgeons and 151 emergency physicians participated in this survey. The most common maneuvers used by emergency physicians to reduce shoulder dislocations were the Hippocrates technique (19.2%) and Cunningham technique (19.2%), while orthopedic surgeons preferred the Hippocrates technique (23.7%) and Kocher technique (29.6%). It was found that orthopedic surgeons preferred Kocher and Milch maneuvers more for shoulder joint dislocation reduction compared to emergency physicians (p < 0.001 and p = 0.005, respectively). Both the pre- reduction and postreduction procedures showed variability between orthopedic surgeons and emergency physicians. Conclusion It would be more appropriate for the emergency physician and orthopedic surgeons to treat a patient with shoulder dislocation together as a team and beneficial to establish a national guideline for consensus.
