Filter by:There is no study in the literature comparing the effectiveness of ESWT and splint therapy, which are the most commonly used approaches in the treatment of Trigger Finger (TF). The aim in this study is to investigate the effectiveness of ESWT and splint therapy used in the treatment of TF.
The 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.
The 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.
Study purpose is to evaluate the effectiveness of Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) injection in the treatment of trigger finger. We compare PRP to a corticosteroid (methylprednisolone) injection in a prospective randomized triple-blind placebo-controlled study. Patients with clinically confirmed trigger finger are randomized (1:1:1 computer generated sequence with random block size) to three parallel groups and will receive an injection of either PRP, corticosteroid or placebo (0.9% saline) around the affected tendon sheath in a double-blind setting. Baseline data is collected and is followed by a phone call at 1 month, and follow-up visits at 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after the intervention. Unveiling of the allocation is at 6 months post-intervention. The primary outcome measures are: - Symptom resolution - Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation Secondary outcomes: - Quick-Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand - Pain Visual Analogue Score - Global improvement (7-step Likert-scale) - Grip strength - Finger range of motion
Trigger finger, also known as stenosing tenosynovitis, is a painful condition that can cause discomfort and disability. Many physicians choose to locally inject cortisone into the infected finger although there is no current consensus as to how many injections are needed to achieve maximum relief. This study will be a prospective, randomized study to compare one versus two injections for the treatment of trigger finger.
