Compared with shoulder surgeons, results showed trauma surgeons had a more aggressive approach to rehabilitation with regard to time to weight-bearing status and passive range of motion after operative repair of proximal humerus fractures.
“Our study surveyed shoulder surgeons and trauma surgeons on their preferences for rehabilitation after proximal humeral fractures. After regression analysis, we found that trauma surgeons preferred to start shoulder range of motion and weight-bearing earlier than did shoulder surgeons in both [open reduction and internal fixation] ORIF and
