Summary

The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the human body. Movements are carried out in most of the activities we participate in, such as work, sports, household tasks, shopping and leisure activities. Shoulder diseases affect 21% of the western population and is one of the most frequent reasons for consultation in orthopedics and rehabilitation consultations.

Shoulder pain is in a large majority of cases related to the slope of the acromion and rotator cuff pathology, which would include the slope of the acromion syndrome. The degree of involvement can range from bursitis, tendinitis, to tendinous ruptures.

Initial treatment is usually conservative and may consist of anti-inflammatory medication and rehabilitation. When the pain is not relieved, surgery is usually recommended. Surgery for rotator cuff tears is increasingly performed minimally invasive, using arthroscopy.

Hospital admission days are currently being reduced, so many of the scheduled shoulder surgeries are performed via the Outpatient Surgery Unit. Often, users are not seen again by the surgeon until a week after the intervention. The affected person must empower themselves and participate actively and progressively in their recovery process. This process begins right after the surgical intervention. Therefore, it is very important that the person has all the necessary information about the surgical procedure that has been performed. Patient education is crucial to reduce anxiety and optimize surgical outcomes.
