Rehabilita)on a-er anterior stabilisa)on surgery It s all about communica)on Jo Gibson MCSP MSc.
Today Considera)ons - ge;ng it right at the start Pre- op Assessment What I need to know Safe zone Role of early mobilisa)on
Considera)ons Sub- op)mal outcomes are related to:! Propriocep)on Link with no. disloca)ons & length of Sx Link to loss ER / IR in neutral Movement panern Laxity Stein et al 2011, Ide et al 2004, Wilks et al 2006, Neri et al 2010, Louw et al 2014
Factors associated with dissa)sfac)on Pain S)ffness Recurrent Instability Unable to return to sport/hobby Huang et al 2015, Kim et al 2012
The Role of Preopera)ve Clinic? Educa)on, educa)on, educa)on! Expecta)ons Planning/pre- emp)ng? block Sugai et al 2013, Louw et al 2014, Linton 2005
What do I need to know? The Ingredients I have to work with? - Pa)ent factors - Impact of pathology - Surgical factors How it impacts dynamic stability?
What do I need to know? Pa)ent Factors Compliance Laxity Occupa)on/Sport Previous injury - kine)c chain deficits Sciascia et al 2010 Gibson 2011
What do I need to know? Impact of pathology History Pain Impact dynamic stabilisers Propriocep)on Cor)cal changes Warner 2002, Borsa & Fu 2006, Shitara et al 2014
Current Trends The Brain! Link with chronicity Recurrence Associated with dura)on vs intensity of pain Ngomo et al 2014, Heales 2013, Berth et al 2009, Conboy 2014 Howard et al 2014
What do I need to know? Surgical Procedure Extent damage Fixa)on - Anchor type, suture etc. Tissue quality Laxity McFarland et al, 2005 Kim et al, 2006
What do I need to know? Surgical Factors The Safe zone Inflamma)on
Safe Zone: Early Mobilisa)on Decrease pain/ swelling Maintain ROM Propriocep)on Dynamic Stability Anatomy?! None of these things are achieved keeping the arm s)ll!
Safe Zone: Early mobilisa)on Advantages? Enhanced Healing? Reduced Pain? Early return to func)on Pa)ent Sa)sfac)on Kim 2003
My Job is to avoid this!
My Job..is to facilitate this
Early Mobilisa)on: Keeping it safe SSP ISP AD AA Flex 3% 8% 11% Pend 9% 9% 3% T Bar 19% 27% 43% Uhl 2010
Early Mobilisa)on: Keeping it safe SSP ISP AD St Squat 4% 2% 3% Ball Roll 5% 4% 6% Kibler, Uhl 2008
What Are We Protec)ng? Reality Push a door or carry a load Subscapularis 29% 68% MVC Supraspinatus 10-20% MVC Infraspinatus 20-30 % MVC Smith 2007 Uhl 2010
Phase I Protec)ve? Facilitatory Vs. Protec)ve? Safe zone it s big! Load to failure?

Rehab Priori)es: Dynamic Stability Func)onally relevant Explosive movement EOR load Sustained eleva)on* Confidence*
Is it just about strength? Joint posi)on sense versus movement control Feedback motor planning Cor)cal changes Emphasis on func)onal engagement with hand important Uri et al 2015, Arzi et al 2014, Koo 2011
Op)mising Outcomes: Real Life? 2005-2012 18 week average/8% failure rate Single surgeon series 37 professional footballers No exclusion unlike Kim! Early mobilisa)on in protected arc Key ingredients Rx
Op)mising Outcomes: Real Life? Av return to sport 7.5/52 quicker Players returned to play mean 9.5/52 (7.5 12) 8 % failure rate* Poor compliance VAS < 2 3/52 quicker Func)onal ROM 4-6/52 Laxity?

Working Together To Op)mise Pa)ent Outcomes Key principles; Communica)on Pa)ent factors Impact of pathology Surgical procedure Rehabilita)on priori)es Op)mising the biology!
Is there a magic protocol? ASSET protocol versus normal care? Home based programme Comparable in terms of - ROM - Return to work and sport BUT Strength, Propriocep)on,? recurrence Know key principles Damkjaer et al 2015, Ismail et al 2014
