dc.description.abstract | Objective: To evaluate the application of local anaesthesia for reduction of acute anterior shoulder dislocation Design: A prospective study of patients coming with anterior dislocation of shoulder to KMCTH from July 2002 to Sep 2003. Subjects: Patients of aged 15-55 years with no associated fractures of adjoining bones. Results: A total of fifteen patients with anterior inferior shoulder dislocation were studied and all were reduced safely under local anaesthesia. Conclusion: Use of intra-articular lignocaine for reduction of shoulder dislocation is safe and effective and is beneficial for countries like Nepal where health facilities are minimum in rural and suburban areas. Key words: Shoulder dislocation, intra-articular injection, local anaesthesia, reduction | |
