Chair method: a simple and effective method for reduction of anterior shoulder dislocation
Öz
Methods: Seventy-four patients with anterior shoulder dislocation were treated using the chair method. Data from patients were recorded and analyzed.
Results: All dislocated shoulders were successfully reduced using the chair method without any complication or difficulty. Thirty patients had first time dislocation and 44 patients had previous dislocation. Mean duration between dislocation and reduction was 3 (range: 1 to 6) hours. Mean duration of reduction was 13.9 (range: 3 to 45) seconds.
Conclusion: The chair method is an effective and successful reduction method for shoulder dislocation. We believe that orthopedists and emergency department physicians should be familiar with this simple technique which does not have to be performed under general anesthesia.
