Kinesiophobia (fear of physical movement) is common after a previous shoulder dislocation and persists after one year, regardless of the occurrence of a recurrence. This kinesiophobia is associated with a lower level of physical activity and a lower return to sport. Increased kinesiophobia, combined with other psychological factors such as depression and fear of re-injury in patients with shoulder instability, results in poor outcomes after treatment. Given that there is currently no postoperative protocol that takes this psychological component into account, a new rehabilitation protocol focused on reducing kinesiophobia was recently designed as part of an international consensus study based on the method Delphi. This protocol includes a core set of evidence-based interventions aimed at regaining functional stability of the shoulder and reducing fear of recurrent dislocation and kinesiophobia. The goal of this study is to determine if we can reduce kinesiophobia in patients who have undergone stabilization surgery for anterior shoulder instability using this new rehabilitation protocol.
