Mobilization With Movement Versus Soft Tissue Mobilization in Patients With De Quervain Tenosynovitis...
De Quervain Syndromethis study will investigate the effects of mobilization with movement in addition to soft tissue mobilization on pain and range of motion in patients suffering from De Quervain Tenosynovitis.
Intra-sheath vs Extra-sheath Injection for De Quervain's Tenosynovitis
De Quervain TenosynovitisThe aim of the study is to determine whether or not extra-sheath steroid injections are inferior to intra-sheath steroid injections in the treatment of DeQuervain's Tenosynovitis. Patients will be randomized to either the intra-sheath group or the extra-sheath group and their pre-injection level of pain will be assessed using the visual analog scale. Appropriate injections will then be administered by 1 of 3 UC Davis hand surgeons. Six weeks post injection the patients will be reassessed using the visual analog scale and their score at 6 weeks will be compared to their pre-injection score.
The Treatment of Purulent Flexor Tenosynovitis
TenosynovitisThis study evaluates the effect of postoperative intermittent closed-catheter irrigation on the recovery from the purulent flexor tenosynovitis. One group of patients suffering from acute purulent flexor tenosynovitis is treated using intraoperative irrigation only and the other group having both intra- and postoperative irrigation.
Resection of Flexor Digitorum Superficialis Tendon for Severe Trigger Fingers
Trigger FingerStenosing TenosynovitisThe purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of resection of one or both slips of the flexor digitorum superficialis tendon versus the A1 pulley division.
Comparing Relative Motion Splint and Metacarpophalangeal Joint Blocking Splint for Trigger Finger...
Trigger FingerStenosing TenosynovitisThe purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of relative motion splint and metacarpophalangeal joint blocking splints in terms of sign and symptoms, hand function, occupational performance, and perception of splint wearability (comfort and satisfaction) after six weeks of TF management.
New 3D Printed Wrist Orthosis
Carpal Tunnel SyndromeUlnar Nerve Injury5 moreIn order to offer a new product improving the healing and/or rehabilitation of injuries or injuries to the wrist and hand, Médicus is seeking to develop a new orthosis for the wrist and hand by 3D printing. This project will focus on the development of an orthosis related to carpal tunnel syndrome as well as droopy hand. Among the issues to be addressed in this development proposal, the investigators find: 1) Identification of the best methodology for taking digital impressions; design of an orthosis with the following characteristics: (i) no external attachment system, (ii) spiral design with a thumb ring, (iii) manufacturing by 3D printing and (iv) a cost of less than $150 ;3) Performing technical and clinical trials.
The SToICAL Study - The Soft Tissue Injection of Corticosteroid And Local Anaesthetic Study
Carpal Tunnel SyndromeDe Quervains Tenosynovitis1 moreSome hand conditions can be treated with a steroid injection. Some doctors mix the steroid with local anaesthetic in the hope that the patient will experience less pain after the injection. Some doctors do not do this. It is not known if adding local anaesthetic to the steroid improves patient's pain after the injection. The overall aim of the study is to see whether using local anaesthetic in the steroid injection makes a difference to patients' pain. If the study shows that using local anaesthetic improves patients' pain then the investigators should continue using it. If not, the investigators should stop giving patients unnecessary medication, which would also save the NHS time and money.
Betamethasone Versus Ketorolac Injection for the Treatment of DeQuervains Tenosynovitis
DeQuervain TendinopathyThe purpose of this study is to determine if corticosteroid injection modifies the natural course of de Quervain tendinopathy compared to a toradol injection.
Steroid Injection in De Quervain Tenosynovitis
De Quervain DiseaseThis study is carried out to find out the degree of pain relief achieved with standard treatment as steroid injection as well as its time to onset. It will recruit 50 subjects over a period of 18 months.
Efficacy of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy on Ultrasonographic Changes in de Quervain Tenosynovitis...
De Quervain DiseaseThe current study will be conducted to explore the efficacy of ESWT on ultrasonographic changes, pain intensity level, upper limb function and hand grip strength in patients with de Quervain tenosynovitis.
