Background

  • Humerus separates from the scapula at the glenohumeral joint
  • Partial dislocation of the shoulder is referred to as subluxation

Types

Evaluation

Management

  • Reduction
    • See individual types for specific techniques
    • Do not attempt to reduce chronic dislocations (>4 weeks) in ED due to risk of arterial injury - these require reduction in the OR
  • Cochrane review notes lower complications, equal pain control, and shorter ED stay with intra-articular lidocaine vs. procedural sedation
    • 20 mL of 1% lidocaine intra-articular injection[1]

Disposition

  • Uncomplicated dislocation can be discharged after reduction
  • Recurrence rate around 27% if older than 30 years and 72% is younger than 23 years[2]
