Patient Education and Sling Use After Shoulder Surgery
Evaluation of Educational Pamphlets and Female Patient Experience With Post-operative Sling-Wear
This study will evaluate whether educational pamphlets can help patients safely manage personal hygiene, household activities, and female-specific self-care while wearing a sling after surgery. The study will also examine whether following sling-use instructions is associated with better short-term recovery and patient-reported outcomes for up to 6 months after surgery.
