Master Series: Posterior Instability: “Johnstown Jim’s Take”-Dr. James P. Bradley, M.D.

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, the speaker, identified as Johnstown Jim from a small town in Pennsylvania, shares 10 lessons he has learned over 28 years of research in post-year instability. He discusses various mechanisms and treatments for overhand and contact athletes. He emphasizes the importance of considering physical exam findings, such as circumduction and load and shift tests, as well as hyperlaxity states and bone loss. He also highlights the significance of glenoid dysplasia, scapular dyskinesis, labral tears and retroversion, and concomitant pathologies. The speaker mentions the poor outcomes in overhand athletes and the better outcomes in contact athletes. He advises against using electrothermal treatment. (No external credits were given)
