The hand is the basic functional organ of the human body and is responsible for complex tasks such as grasping and catching. It also plays an important role in a person's daily life, self-care activities and business life. When the flexor tendon system, which is necessary for the effective use of the hand, is damaged, it can cause physical, socioeconomic deterioration, mood disorders and permanent disabilities in the individual. Treatment of flexor tendon injuries after appropriate surgical repair ıt includes an intensive rehabilitation program. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the early rehabilitation results of patients who underwent a rehabilitation program after Zone II flexor tendon injury by comparing the improvements in joint range of motion, pain, functionality and quality of life with other zone injuries.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Visual Analog Scale | Pain intensity of patients at rest and during activity will be evaluated with a visual analog scale (VAS). For VAS evaluation, the meanings of the numbers from 0 to 10 placed on a 10 cm line were explained to the patients. It will be announced that no pain is 0 points, moderate pain is 5 points, and the most severe pain is 10 points. According to these explanations, the patient will be asked to mark the pain on a 10 cm line. Pain intensity will be determined by measuring the distance between the marked place and the starting point with a ruler. | baseline and 4th week | |
Primary | Range of motion | Range of motion is one of the most commonly used outcome variables after hand tendon injuries and will be preferred because it provides objective information about the effectiveness of the treatment. Since this study covers the acute period after repair, the normal joint movement of the patients will be evaluated passively. The measurement will be made with a goniometer. | baseline and 4th week | |
Secondary | Duruoz Hand Index | Duruoz Hand Index is a self-reported measure of the patient's self-reported hand movements in the kitchen, while dressing, performing personal hygiene, at work, and other general movements. It consists of 18 items on skills. Scores range from 0 to 40 for kitchen work, from 0 to 10 for dressing, hygiene and office work, and from 0 to 20 for the "other" category. Patients rated their abilities as 0 (no difficulty) and 5 (impossible) to reach a total score between 0-90. A higher score represents greater activity restriction and more difficulty. | baseline and 4th week | |
Secondary | Short Form-36 | It is a 36-question scale consisting of physical function, physical role difficulty, emotional role difficulty, pain, vitality, general health and mental health subscales. Each subscale; It is scored so that "0" indicates the lowest and "100" indicates the best level of quality of life. | baseline and 4th week |
