“…Most investigators agree that the main problem in treating shoulder dislocations arises by the muscular contraction which accompanies all shoulder dislocations making the reduction difficult and painful [4,5,9,10,[12][13][14][15][16].…”

“…The traction, described in a large number of technique raises several problems: the pain caused by the traction increases the muscle contracture making the reduction trying and poorly tolerated by patients [4,5,9,10,[12][13][14][15][16][17]; it increases the risk of procedural complications such as humeral neck fractures (mainly in osteoporotic bones), brachial plexus and axillary nerve damage [4,5,7,9,10,[12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. Although unusual, the literature describes occasional risks for the operator: Pimpalnerkar et al [19] observed the case of a resident orthopaedic who suffered a total pectoralis major tendon rupture while tractioning a dislocated shoulder.…”

“…The ''original'' traction-free Kocher's method [11] to perform the reduction of a shoulder dislocation has been recently reviewed by many authors with excellent results regarding the success rate and the control of the pain [12][13][14][15][16]. Some authors speculated that it can be self performed by patients under the guide of the physician, in this way, it can be considered an ''assisted self-reduction'' technique and it results both effective and simple to perform [12,13].…”

“…To create a common language, the most common reduction manoeuvres were repeated before the study. Techniques such as Hippocrates [10], Kocher [3,11,12,20], Tractioncounter traction [12], Milch technique [13,14,17], scapular manipulation techniques [15,16] and Stimson technique [17,18] were revised. The videos in which these techniques were not used, were assessed under the title of "others".…”

Shoulder dislocation reliable on youtube?An evaluation of the relaibility of videos on youtube related to shoulder dislocation reduction methods DOI: 10.4328 We aimed to determine the availability of videos on YouTube related to shoulder dislocation reduction manoeuvres, which could be used for training. Material and Method: Of a total 536 videos, 389 were excluded, primarily because they were not related to shoulder dislocation. The remaining 147 videos were watched and evaluated. Results: Of the 147 videos evaluated in this study, 70 had been uploaded by relevant healthcare personnel such as doctors. The number of views was determined as mean 89149.19 (min-max: 7-2593041), the median time was 4.44 minutes (min-max 0.18-51.58 mins), the maximum number of video uploads was made with 41 videos in 2015, and in 93 videos real people were used. When the videos were watched, 98 videos were determined to show manoeuvres applied accurately. When the videos were evaluated according to the correct application, a statistically significant relationship was observed between the number of views, the upload date and the accuracy of the manoeuvre shown (p≤0.05). A significant difference was also found between the accuracy of the video and who uploaded it (p:0.058). No statistically significant relationship was determined between the lengths of the videos, to whom the manoeuvre was applied and accuracy. (p: 0.213-0.625 respectively). Discussion: The results of this study showed that videos related to shoulder dislocation uploaded to YouTube are not %100 accurate and instructive. Therefore, taking these videos as a guide in training may result in the application of incorrect manoeuvres causing some complications during the shoulder dislocation reduction. Videos which showed more than one manoeuvre were observed to be more accurate than those showing a single manoeuvre.
