Shoulder Fracture Interview Study
Living With a Shoulder Fracture - An Interview Study
Shoulder fractures are painful injuries and are the third most common fracture in adults. More and more people are having these injuries each year. Problems such as pain, swelling and lack of movement and strength can last for many months and some people never get back to their previous levels of ability with the injured arm. Information that is given to people following this injury can be very difficult to understand. To improve the information that is given to people following a shoulder fracture, it is necessary to understand what it is like to live with a shoulder fracture and what is important to people recovering from this injury.
This study will interview people who have had a shoulder fracture at around one month and around 4-6 months after their injury. These people will be identified from a physiotherapy waiting list. The interviews will explore people's views on their injury, their recovery and how their needs and priorities change over time.

Detailed Description
Previous studies have shown that the written information provided to people after a shoulder fracture is varied and complex, and is written by experts without any apparent input from patients. Appropriate information provided at the right time may lead to improved outcomes for patients after a shoulder fracture, which may mean improvements in pain levels and function. Appropriate information may help to increase patients empowerment, which is their ability to use information provided to enable them to make informed decisions regarding their health care and to take a proactive approach in their recovery following an injury such as a shoulder fracture. To ensure that information is accessible and appropriate, it is necessary to understand the experience of living with a shoulder fracture and what is important to those who have sustained this injury.
This study intends to hear the views of people who have had a shoulder fracture both early on (around one month after injury) and later in their recovery (4-6 months after injury). It aims to explore the differing needs and experiences of people at different time points after injury and how their views on recovery change over time.
This may lead to further work on information provision, which may help improve outcomes by providing the right (accessible) information to the right people in the right way at the right time.
