The document discusses unstable shoulder dislocations, including types, causes, biomechanics, and management approaches. It details evaluations for recurrent dislocation, associated injuries like Bankart and Hill-Sachs lesions, and outlines treatment options such as closed manipulation, surgical stabilization, and rehabilitation. The document emphasizes the importance of both non-operative and surgical interventions based on the specific instability type and patient response.

5. BIOMECHANICS
The glenohumeral joint will not
dislocate as long as the net humeral
joint reaction force is directed within
the effective glenoid arc
