Overview

This randomised controlled trial investigates the impact of psychological interventions on shoulder function in patients recovering from Latarjet surgery, suggesting improved outcomes.

Key Points

The study aims to assess whether adding psychological interventions to physical therapy enhances shoulder function recovery after the Latarjet procedure.
Monocentric randomised controlled trial with 52 participants.
Patients undergo either physical therapy plus cognitive behavioural therapy or physical therapy alone.
Eligibility includes ages 18-67 and specific shoulder instability criteria.
Primary outcome measured by the Western Ontario Shoulder Index at 6 months.
Secondary outcomes include rates of recurrent dislocations and return-to-sport metrics.
Expect improvement in patient-reported function with the integrated approach compared to standard therapy.
