In our clinical trial, we found several problem areas and developed ways to improve our diagnostic accuracy. Since the resolution of transmitted images is less than that of film, a review of the original films at some later time is needed.

Background: Recurrent shoulder dislocations often lead to multiple encounters for reduction and eventual surgical stabilization, both of which involve exposure to opioids and potentially increase the risk of chronic opioid exposure. The purpose of our study was to characterize shoulder instability and compare pre- and post-reduction opioid usage in singular dislocators (SD) and recurrent dislocators (RD).

Methods: This retrospective study was performed at a single academic institution using a prospective database.
