REHABILITATION WITH PHYSIOTHERAPIST & SELF REHABILITATION

Shoulder recovery range of motion : LIOTARD Protocol is the evolution of NEER Protocol. Selfmuscle stretching: to provide the flexibility. Follow the instructions for use below.

The main purpose of the physiotherapists/doctors is to provide a customized support to learn the right
gesture (to control & correct), Cervico-dorsal massages helps to promote the relaxation.

This protocol do not include repetitive passive motion – the mechano-therapy (pulleys, sticks,…) – any form of active work including a strength (weight, elastics…)

Objective:

  1. Analgesic
  2. Anti-inflammatory
  3. Flexibility work

Principle undesirable:

  1. No intensive or aggressive work: any pain should disappear when we stopped the exercise. If
    not the stretching work has been to strong or not done in the right way. Do not do more
    exercises recommended (defeats the purpose: inflammatory side-effect) Do no more, no less.
  2. Distribute working time to avoid too long immobilization.
  3. Be consistent over time and in the way of working.
  4. Start in the morning by a warm shower or bath.

RECOVERY OF MOBILITY CANNOT ACCELERATE WOUND HEALING, WHICH STAY THE OBJECTIVE OF YOUR SURGERY (RESPECT THE DELAY AND THE INSTRUCTIONS OF YOUR SURGEON).

FLYING

There is no universal agreement as to when it is safe to travel by plane after a shoulder surgery. It seems that most Orthopaedic Surgeons advise their patients not to fly for 4 to 6 weeks following the surgery.
Short flights do not seem to be a problem. However, long intercontinental flights are a potential problem as there is an increased incidence of spontaneous DVT (deep venous thrombosis), even in the young and healthy passengers.

SURGEON PROFILE

Johannes BARTH is an orthopaedic surgeon working in a private hospital in the Grenoble area. His main clinical interests are knee and shoulder arthroscopy with an emphasis on sports injuries. He did his residency in Grenoble, and his clinical fellowship with Dr. Pierre Chambat in Lyon, France (in 2001) where he also met Dr. Gilles Walch. He subsequently spent six months with Pr. Stephen Burkhart in San Antonio, Texas, USA (in 2003), as research fellow. He participated in the 2016 travelling-fellowship in Asia (APKASS) for ESSKA. He became a member of the Lyon School of Knee Surgery and the Burkhart Research Association of Shoulder Surgeon both involved in education, research, and meeting organization. He managed a project to build an institution exclusively dedicated to muscular and skeletal diseases from 2010 to 2013 and the Centre Ostéo-Articulaire des Cèdres (a 1,500 m2 facility) opened in October 2013. He is the president of the French Society of Arthroscopic and a member of the SOFCOT, ESSKA and ISAKOS. He has published several articles in peer-reviewed journals and is a reviewer of the AJSM, OJSM, JSES, OTSR, and IJSS. He is operating approximately five hundred cases per year (including forty shoulder arthroplasties, two hundred rotator cuff repair, eighty shoulder instabilities, one hundred fifty ACLs and PCLs). He started a clinical and research fellowship program in 2012 involving Resident or surgeon from E.U. and over-seas. He manages a yearly fellowship (one fellow for a one-year period, minimum six months) to allow the transmission of technical skills and where the fellow is expected to assist in all aspects of the profession (e.g. surgery, scientific research, etc.).
