Rehabilitation program to reduce fear after shoulder surgery

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study focuses on patients who have undergone a Latarjet procedure for shoulder dislocation and aims to address kinesiophobia, or fear of movement, which can hinder recovery. A new rehabilitation protocol has been developed that combines psychological consultations and conventional rehabilitation techniques to help patients regain functional stability and reduce their fear of re-injury. The study will evaluate the effectiveness of this multifactorial approach in improving patient outcomes post-surgery.
