Abstract: Background: Shoulder dislocations accounts for half of the all joint dislocations, and of them 95-98% are anterior dislocations. This prospective study was conducted to delineate the role of tri-sequential technique in reduction which is easy, safe and reproducible.
Materials and methods: This Prospective study was conducted in Department of Orthopaedics, King George’s Medical University, Lucknow over a period Between Jan 2017-July 2018 al shoulder were reduced either in outdoor or orthopedic emergency unit which is a tertiary care centre. Where we evaluated type of dislocations, safety, effectivity of the maneuver and comparison with the other technique was done.
Results: Out of 34 patients, 100% success rate was observed in only dislocations and average time in reduction was found to be <2mins. The Average VAS pain Scores experienced while reduction was ranged <5. None of the patients encountered any complication.
Conclusion: This Tri-sequential technique is very safe, reliable and easily reproducible even in the hands of level 1 health care provider without any risk of complication which even does not require any assistant or hospitalization.
