Evaluation of Surgical Positioning in Arthroscopic Shoulder Stabilization

December 6, 2021 updated by: Rothman Institute Orthopaedics

The Effects of Surgical Positioning on Arthroscopic Shoulder Stabilization: A Prospective Comparison

The purpose of this study is to prospectively determine whether intra-operative factors, complications and post-operative outcomes differ between beach chair and lateral decubitus surgical positioning for patients receiving arthroscopic shoulder stabilization (anterior or posterior) due to shoulder instability.
