NCT ID: NCT03873480 Completed - Trigger Thumb Clinical Trials

Trigger Thumb Randomized Controlled Trial

Start date: October 2, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

We are conducting this study to determine if administration of local anesthetic to the thumb prior to surgery can reduce the amount of anesthetic gas given during the course of surgery.

NCT ID: NCT03868449 Completed - Clinical trials for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Question Prompt List for Common Hand Conditions

Start date: April 8, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Patients with common hand conditions will be randomized to one of two groups- one will receive a question prompt list, the other will receive a list of 3 questions

NCT ID: NCT03847935 Completed - Trigger Finger Clinical Trials

Trigger Finger Treatment

Start date: December 10, 2007
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Trigger finger is a common disorder of the hand which causes pain at the A1 pulley, inflammation, stiffness and/or snapping during movement. This observational study compared all of the possible treatments and combinations of treatments for trigger finger at the A1 pulley, including surgery, cortisone injections and hand therapy.

NCT ID: NCT03679793 Completed - Trigger Thumb Clinical Trials

Study of Open and Percutaneous Release of Acquired Trigger Thumb

Start date: August 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Trigger finger, also known as trigger digit or stenosing tenovaginitis, is caused by a size mismatch between the flexor tendon and the A1 pulley, which is generally characterized by pain, swelling, the limitation of finger range of motion and a symptomatic locking or clicking sensation. Conservative treatment options include the application of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), physiotherapy, electrotherapy, splinting and corticosteroid injection but not always effective with regard to frequent recurrence. Open surgical release of the A1 pulley remains the gold standard of treating symptomatic trigger finger. While percutaneous release is a minimal invasive alternative and gaining popularity for the index, middle ring and little fingers, investigations for the surgical efficacy on thumb is few and far between. Investigators believe that a carefully conducted operation with proper positioning of the thumb, wide-awake approach and meticulous technique can achieve similar efficacy and safety in terms of possibly less intraoperative pain, imperceptible scar and early return to daily activities and routine work. The hypothesis of this study is that by using a proper positioning of thumb, wide awake approach and meticulous technique in conducting percutaneous release of trigger thumb can achieve similar efficacy and safety compared to that of open release surgical method. Moreover, percutaneous release of trigger thumb can generate less intraoperative pain, imperceptible scar and promote early return to routine work. Hence, the objective of this study is to investigate and compare the safety, effectiveness and outcome of percutaneous release versus traditional open release for trigger thumbs.

NCT ID: NCT03663608 Completed - Clinical trials for Trigger Finger Disorder

Wide Awake Local Anesthesia No Tourniquet

WALANT
Start date: November 20, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The main objective is to assess patient's satisfaction regarding pure local anaesthesia and without use of a tourniquet (WALANT Technique) for trigger finger release surgery.

NCT ID: NCT03641508 Completed - Clinical trials for Trigger Finger Disorder

Long Term Effectiveness of Trigger Finger Injections With Triamcinolone vs. Dexamethasone

Start date: January 2014
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Trigger finger (stenosing tenosynovitis) is a very common condition and in office treatment with corticosteroid injection is widely accepted to be first line treatment. Previous studies have reported resolution of triggering after injection at rates ranging from 50% to 93%. Many factors contribute to this variability, including duration of symptoms, presence of diabetes, etc. This study will be a single center, prospective, randomized control trial. Patients will be collected into two different cohorts. The main cohort will be of patients with primary, idiopathic trigger finger. A second cohort of patients with diabetes will also be collected for secondary study questions. Study procedures will include clinical examination of the patient, injection of trigger fingers with mix of local anesthetic and one of two steroids, possible repeat trigger finger injections, and if patients are so indicated, surgical treatment of the trigger finger. Surgical treatment is considered clinical care of these patients who have continued or recurrent symptoms and the surgical treatment would not be considered part of this study. During the study, patients will also fill out surveys about their symptoms. The study drugs used will be 1% lidocaine without epinephrine mixed with either triamcinolone or dexamethasone. These medications are FDA approved for injection treatment of "acute non-specific tenosynovitis." This indication includes trigger finger which is also known as acute stenosing tenosynovitis. The package inserts listing the indications for use of these medications are included in the attachments portion of the IRB application.

NCT ID: NCT03573765 Completed - Osteoarthritis Clinical Trials

Epidemiology and Outcomes of Upper Limb Surgery: Analysis of Routine Data

Start date: April 6, 1998
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Surgery is a common treatment type for damaged joints, tendons and nerves in the upper limb where conservative measures are inappropriate or have failed. These conditions are common and result in significant levels of pain and functional disability. The investigators are conducting a broad ranging study of variation in the provision of surgical treatment and factors affecting outcomes after surgical treatment of upper limb conditions. This will be a population-based study of all patients undergoing surgical treatment funded by the National Health Service (NHS) of England over a nineteen-year period. This study will help to understand the factors associated with a poor outcome following surgery, which can be shared with patients considering treatment options. The investigators will also document current and future health service burden associated with commonly performed surgical procedures including complications and repeat operations.

NCT ID: NCT03111186 Completed - Clinical trials for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Ibuprofen Plus Acetaminophen Versus Oxycodone Alone After Hand Surgery

Start date: April 24, 2017
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This study is about pain control and medication following outpatient soft-tissue hand surgery. We hope to learn if ibuprofen and acetaminophen will achieve similar pain relief and satisfaction when compared with oxycodone alone.

NCT ID: NCT02830672 Completed - Clinical trials for Surgical Release of Ai Pulley Trigger Finger

Ultrasound Guided A1 Pulley Release For The Treatment of Trigger Finger

Start date: November 1, 2015
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

In this randomized, prospective clinical trial, patients with trigger finger or trigger thumb, will be treated with two different methods; ultrasound-guided release of the first annular pulley or open surgical release of A1 pulley. Results will be compared regarding functional, clinical and cosmetic outcome.

NCT ID: NCT02196233 Completed - Trigger Finger Clinical Trials

Surgical Treatment of Adult Trigger Finger

Start date: November 2012
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Trigger finger is a condition commonly treated with surgical intervention, yet no specific incision type has been associated with improved or worsened scar quality or outcome. Therefore, the investigators objective is to determine if the incision type may affect the results of operative treatment of trigger finger. Therefore, the goals of this study are as follows: Primary Objective: To directly compare incision type (transverse vs. longitudinal) for trigger finger release with scar quality and patient satisfaction via a validated scar evaluation scale. Secondary Objective: To directly compare incision type (transverse vs. longitudinal) for trigger finger release to patient outcome via a validated upper extremity outcome score.
