N2 - INTRODUCTION: Traumatic shoulder dislocation is a common shoulder injury, especially among the young and active population. More than 95% of dislocations are anterior, in which the humeral head is forced beyond the anterior glenoid rim. The injury leads to increased joint laxity and recurrence rates are high. There is evidence that the shoulder biomechanics and neuromuscular control change following dislocation, but the existing literature is scarce, and it remains to be established if and how these parameters are useful in the clinical setting. The aim of this exploratory prospective cohort study is to investigate biomechanical and neuromuscular outcomes in patients with traumatic anterior shoulder instability undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair, to test the hypothesis that examinations of these characteristics are applicable in the clinical setting to assess shoulder instability.METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This is a prospective multicentre cohort study with repeated measures of 30 patients undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair. With carefully selected and completely non-invasive examination methods, we will investigate biomechanical and neuromuscular outcomes in the affected shoulders once presurgically and twice post surgically at 6 and 12 months. Patients' contralateral shoulders are investigated once to establish a preinjury level.ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: The study was approved by the Capital Region Ethics Committee (journal-no: H-21027799) and the Capital Region Knowledge Center for Data Reviews (journal-no: P-2021-842) before patient recruitment began. The study results will be published in international peer-reviewed journals, online and in other relevant media, presented at medical conventions and disseminated to clinicians and patients as appropriate.TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT05250388.
