Clinical Trial Summary

This study compares and evaluates differences in movement analysis, patient-reported outcome, radiological assesment and muscular function between patients undergoing carpometacarpal joint arthroplasty with use of modern implants and trapeziectomy with suspensionplasty


Description:

Osteoarthritis of first carpometacarpal joint is the most common degenerative disease of upper limb. According to data available in literature, it affects about 30% of women and 6% of men at the age of 45. Increasing with age, it rises up to 90% in people by the age of 80. Due to more widely spread electronic devices in offices, at work, at home which requires usage of thumb, increase in numbers mentioned above is strongly probable. The main symptoms are: pain, loose of grip strength and loose of function. The latter is most important fact, since about 50% of hand function is possible only with healthy thumb. In many cases osteoarthritis can be treated by combined NSAIDs and splinting with rehabilitation. Sometimes when symptoms do not respond to non-operative treatment, there is a need for surgery. Trapeziectomy is the most common choice for operative treatment for end-stage basal thumb osteoarthritis. However, many other techniques were developed, there is continuous dispute over selecting the optimal . One of the most promising is arthroplasty using prosthesis. Last years many important advances were made in a design of implant and materials. Moreover the investigators now have many longer outcomes of such operation made in the past. All this data make us think more about using this technique often, since there are papers which show superiority over classical trapeziectomy. Even though there are several studies comparing functional and objective outcome of those techniques, there is a lack of evidence in terms of biomechanical analysis, thenar muscle activity and changes in movement patterns. Moreover there is no study published so far which considers modern implants and trapeziectomy with suspensionplasty. The aim of the study is to examine relationships between movement analysis (kinematic and functional outcomes), patient reported outcome measures (PROMS) and X-ray measurement, electromyography both pre- and post-operatively.

Secondary Changes in patients reported outcomes - PRWE (Patient Related Wrist Evaluation) To measure wrist pain and disability in activities of daily living. Results range from 0 to 50, with lower scores corresponding to better outcomes. at baseline, 6 weeks and 6 months postoperatively
Secondary Changes in patients reported outcomes - Michigan Hand Outcomes Questionaire To explore differences in higher levels of activity at work and social participation. Results range from 0 to 100, with higher scores corresponding to better outcomes. at baseline, 6 weeks and 6 months postoperatively
Secondary Changes in patients reported outcomes - SF-36 (Short Form 36) To explore differences in quality of life. Results range from 0 to 100, with higher scores corresponding to better outcomes. at baseline, 6 weeks and 6 months postoperatively
Secondary Changes in patients reported outcome measures - VAS (Visual Analogue Score) To explore differences in pain. Results range from 0 to 100, with lower scores corresponding to better outcomes. at baseline, 6 weeks and 6 months postoperatively

Secondary Biomechanical 3D motion analysis Movements in whole range are measured using 3D motion analysis, using a special software. With more physiological movement patterns corresponding with better results at baseline, 6 weeks and 6 months postoperatively
Secondary Radiological outcome on x-rays To asses any changes in alignment of implants with would be measured with degrees (angles) with more degrees of change after operation corresponding with worse outcome at baseline, 6 weeks and 6 months postoperatively
