PI: Moin Khan

Co-PI: Ryan Degen, Asheesh Bedi, Tim Leroux, Patrick Henry, Mohit Bhandari

STABLE is a randomized controlled trial that aims to determine the effect of arthroscopic capsuloligamentous repair (Bankart Procedure + Remplissage) or coracoid transfer (Latarjet procedure) on patients who experience recurrent shoulder dislocations. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the functional shoulder recovery of patients with recurrent shoulder dislocations at 24 months. STABLE is a multi-centre RCT of 126 patients across Canada, United States, South America, and Europe evaluating Bankart repair compared to Latarjet procedure in the setting of mild to moderate bone loss.
