Synopsis A recent clinical study demonstrates that open ACJ shows better stabilization scores for instability following DCR. This week's  'MED FACT ' discusses a clinical trial from Journal of Orthopaedics, “ Functional outcome of open acromioclavicular joint stabilization for instability following distal clavicle resection ”. 2018. Authors: Jonathan A.Baxter, JoideepPhadnis, Paul M.Robinson et al. Key Takeaways Open ACJ stabilization resulted in improved functional and pain scores.

Additionally, it a lso  resulted in facilitated return to work following DCR. Objective Study Type Participants To study the effect of open ACJ stabilization for instability subsequent to DCR. Cross Sectional Study   13 What Was The Need For This Study? ACJ instability following DCR results in considerable pain and dysfunction. The study described the results of open ACJ stabilization in patients with…
