Background summary
Recently, the orthopedic department of the St. Antonius Hospital started to use
the DogBone Button, one of the multiple surgical methods to stabilize acute
acromioclavicular (AC) luxation. Until now, there is no consensus in the
literature about what is the best method to do this. The purpose of the present
study is to evaluate the functional status of patients who have undergone an AC
stabilization by means of a dogbone Button. Functional status (compared to the
contralateral shoulder), radiological findings and any residual complaints are
evaluated at least 3 months postoperatively.
Study objective
What is the functional status of patients who have been treated using the
dogbone Button technique as surgical treatment or by means of conservative
treatment of acute acromioclavicular luxation at least 3 months and up to 24
months after surgery?
Study design
observational study, case series
Study burden and risks
Patients are asked to visit the clinic once for a comprehensive physical
examination of the shoulder and to complete a set of questionnaires. The visit
will last approximately 30 minutes. Since there is only one physical
examination and no intervention there will be no risks associated with this
study.
