154 patients with acute anterior dislocation of the glenohumeral joint were randomized to receive either FARES (fast, reliable, safe) reduction, Hippocratic method reduction, or Kocher method reduction. This trial evaluated the efficacy of the FARES reduction method and compared it to the two common methods currently in use. The results from this trial indicated that the FARES method of glenohumeral joint reduction was significantly more efficacious, faster, and associated with less pain when compared to the Kocher and Hippocratic methods.
