Hand Arthritis clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Effectiveness of Digital Rehabilitation (SIMPLI.REHAB) in Hand Arthritis

Start date: July 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study investigates the effectiveness of SIMPLI.REHAB, a digital tool employed as an interface for administering occupational rehabilitation programs to patients diagnosed with Rheumatoid and Psoriatic Arthritis. Both of these conditions are inflammatory joint disorders capable of causing significant morphofunctional alterations in the hands, especially in their advanced stages. The introduction of digital technology emerges as a complementary tool when implementing rehabilitation programs. Utilizing a prospective, longitudinal, single-blinded experimental study, 35 patients will be allocated into two groups: one receiving a complementary digital intervention through SIMPLI.REHAB and the other through a conventional rehabilitation program. Each group consists of six patients and the program spans seven weeks, focusing on therapeutic exercises, training in manual dexterity, and motor coordination, among other interventions, led by a Physiatrist. The study intends to measure outcomes based on functionality scores, pain, disease activity, joint range, grip, pinch strength, and manual dexterity, both before and after each intervention, in order to ascertain the efficacy of integrating dynamic content through the digital tool SIMPLI.REHAB, as a supplementary resource in occupational rehabilitation programs. The potential limitations of the study include potential losses of follow-up and difficulties in assessing adherence to the digital tool precisely. Nonetheless, the digital tool aims to augment functional gains in rehabilitation programs by providing patients with accessible dynamic content of home-based strategies.
