NCT ID: NCT03781141 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Wound Closure Study in Carpal Tunnel and Trigger Finger Surgery

Start date: December 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Does a difference in patient satisfaction and cosmetic outcome exist between wound closure with absorbable or non-absorbable sutures.

NCT ID: NCT03779958 Withdrawn - Clinical trials for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Alternatives to Hand Therapy for Hand Surgery Patients

Start date: January 12, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Patients will be asked to use a mobile phone app to conduct their hand therapy after having hand surgery.

NCT ID: NCT03445780 Withdrawn - Trigger Finger Clinical Trials

Comparison of Distraction Methods for Pain Relief of Trigger Finger Injection

Start date: June 2019
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the best distraction mechanism during trigger finger injection in the outpatient setting. Temporary discomfort from the needle prick is highly feared by patients and is often accompanied by significant acute pain and distress during routine corticosteroid injection in the orthopedic outpatient setting. This study aims to examine 4 different distraction methods and their efficacy in reducing perceived pain, which will be evaluate using the VAS (visual analog pain score.) The three distraction methods will be ethyl chloride spray, adjacent pinch, ethyl chloride spray and pinch, and "screen" or looking away method.

NCT ID: NCT03407820 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Different Sutures in Hand Surgery

Start date: January 31, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study aims to assess the relationship between overall satisfaction with treatment in a group of randomized patients undergoing elective hand surgery using either absorbable (4-0 Chromic) or non-absorbable (5-0 Nylon) sutures. The investigators will also assess factors associated with wound concerns, pain intensity, magnitude of limitations, and physical function within one month of surgery.

NCT ID: NCT03156829 Recruiting - Trigger Finger Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Cortisone Injection and Splinting for Trigger Finger

Start date: November 27, 2017
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Trigger finger has a prevalence rate of up to 3%. There are many approaches available to manage this condition. While corticosteroid injection is widely accepted as the most common first-line treatment, its superiority over splint treatment has not been established. This study aims to test the effectiveness of cortisone injections, splint and cortisone+splint to resolve symptoms.

NCT ID: NCT02972879 Not yet recruiting - Trigger Finger Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Non-surgical Interventions for the Trigger Finger: a Randomized Clinical Trial

Start date: March 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of therapeutic modalities (paraffin, ultrasound and orthotics) versus corticosteroid injection for trigger finger.

NCT ID: NCT02266433 Terminated - Clinical trials for Lateral Epicondylitis

Dexamethasone Versus Ketorolac Injection for the Treatment of Local Inflammatory Hand and Upper Extremity Disorders

Start date: August 2012
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of this study is to compare local corticosteroid hand and elbow injections to placebo or ketorolac to determine if there is an equal or better reduction of symptoms for common orthopaedic upper extremity disorders including: De Quervain's tenosynovitis, trigger fingers, and tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis). The investigators will enroll 780 subjects, divided equally into three arms for each disease process, and compare the efficacy of Ketorolac injections to Dexamethasone injections by measuring patient's functional status scores and pain scores at 0 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 month followup periods, prospectively over time.

NCT ID: NCT02196233 Completed - Trigger Finger Clinical Trials

Surgical Treatment of Adult Trigger Finger

Start date: November 2012
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Trigger finger is a condition commonly treated with surgical intervention, yet no specific incision type has been associated with improved or worsened scar quality or outcome. Therefore, the investigators objective is to determine if the incision type may affect the results of operative treatment of trigger finger. Therefore, the goals of this study are as follows: Primary Objective: To directly compare incision type (transverse vs. longitudinal) for trigger finger release with scar quality and patient satisfaction via a validated scar evaluation scale. Secondary Objective: To directly compare incision type (transverse vs. longitudinal) for trigger finger release to patient outcome via a validated upper extremity outcome score.

NCT ID: NCT02084706 Active, not recruiting - Trigger Finger Clinical Trials

Needle-Free Injection of Lidocaine for Local Anesthesia Prior to Trigger Digit Injection

J-tip
Start date: March 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Jet-injection (J-tip) is a rapid, minimally invasive delivery system that can be used for the subdermal injection of lidocaine solution for anesthetic purposes. The device has been found effective in pain reduction during IV catheterization in adults and children and lumbar puncture in children when compared to placebo saline-jet injection. [1-4]. We believe that administering local anesthetic via J-tip prior to triamcinolone(40 mg/ml) injection could mitigate pain that occurs during and immediately following injection while preserving the post-injection pain relief of anesthetic injection. Furthermore, pre-placement of the jet-injected local anesthetic may obviate the need for the inclusion of local anesthetic into the triamcinolone injection. This would decrease the amount of fluid injected, which could have positive pain modulation by decreased tissue disruption. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of needle free jet injection (J-tip) administration of 2% lidocaine in reduction of the pain experienced during trigger digit 40 mg/ml triamcinolone injection. Hypothesis: Needle free jet injection (J-tip) administration of 2% lidocaine will prove an equal or superior means of pain reduction when compared to 2% lidocaine injection in the setting of trigger digit triamcinolone injections.

NCT ID: NCT02029235 Terminated - Trigger Finger Clinical Trials

Post-operative Analgesia in Elective, Soft-tissue Hand Surgery

Start date: February 10, 2015
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this research study is to find out which combination of pain medications following surgery work the best and result in the fewest side effects.
