Opioid Consumption Following Isolated and Recurrent Shoulder Dislocation and Reduction.
J Shoulder Elbow Surg
January 2025
Department of Orthopaedics; University Hospital Cleveland Medical Center, Cleveland, OH, USA.
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.
