Filter by:"In burn cases, the reported causes of CTS are increased volume of carpal tunnel content due to edema and synovitis, wrist hyperextension, tight dressing, fibrosis, and direct burn to the nerve. There are two types of pain that occur in the palm of the hand after carpal tunnel surgery: incisional pain and pillar pain. The incision pain typically only lasts for a few days or weeks after surgery, while the pillar pain occurs on the sides of the incision in the thicker parts of the palm, called the thenar and hypothenar eminences. This is where the transverse ligament attaches to the carpal bones, forming the carpal tunnel. So, in this study we will find out if shock wave therapy has therapeutic effect on pillar pain after carpal tunnel release in hand burn.
Although it represents a small percentage of the body surface, the hand is the most exposed part of the body after the face and neck and is one of the area's most frequently involved in burns. It has a social function, but above all, a functionnal one. An optimized reconstruction of this area after the burn allow the patient to recover the best possible function and increase his chances of returning to professional activity and daily life. Advances in burn treatment, such as improved resuscitation management, rapid excision of burns, skin grafting, regular dressings, and improved metabolic support, have reduced the morbidity and mortality of severe burns. However, significant challenges remain. The hand is the most frequently involved area in burns and is affected in 90% of severe burns. Hand burns requiring releasing incisions are circular, deep burns and represent a significant functional challenge. In the acute setting, current treatment options must prevent complications associated with disruption of the skin's protective function. In the longer term, these treatments should allow the regeneration of fully functional skin. However, some sequelae may persist in the form of sensory deficits, residual pain, retractile scars hindering function in this highly mobile area, or even aesthetic sequelae. The aim of our study was to perform a descriptive analysis of the aesthetic and functional sequelae related to hand burns that required acute realeasing incisions using objective and subjective tools available in the medical records (demographic, clinical and follow-up data in the context of routine care). This retrospective, non-interventional, data-driven study would provide an overview of the sequelae of hand burns with current therapies.
This study will be done to evaluate effect of applying LED before hand exercise on hand grip strength. Sixty male patients with subacute partial thickness burn of hand will be randomly allocated into two equal groups of 30 patients. The following equipment and tools will be used Measurement equipments: - For total active motion of fingers (TAM): Goniometer. - For hand grip strength: Hand grip dynamometer. Therapeutic equipment: Light emitting diode therapy (LED) device.
The Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function Test and Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) were considered as primary outcome measurements. Secondary outcomes included total active range of motion (ROM) of the digits, hand grip strength and pinch strengths (tip, palmer and lateral pinch). All measurement was conducted at two occasions: at the baseline and after intervention.
No study has investigated the effect of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) on hand function and hypertrophic scar characteristics. To investigate ESWT effects on burned hands, the investigators compare the results of ESWT combined with manual therapy group to the results of matched conventional(CON) rehabilitation combined with manual therapy group.
