Efficacies of Different Managements in Patients With Trigger Finger

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of peritendinous steroid injection under ultrasound guidance and percutaneous A1 pulley release procedures in terms of disease stage, pain, and severity of locking in patients with trigger finger.

Clinical Trial Description

This study was designed as a randomized, controlled, prospective study. Patients who had been experiencing trigger finger symptoms for at least one month and who presented to the Gaziler Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Training and Research Hospital, affiliated with the Health Sciences University Faculty of Medicine Patients were randomly divided into two groups: the peritendinous steroid group (n=15) and the percutaneous pulley release group (n=15). In the first group, under ultrasound guidance, a mixture of 1 ml corticosteroid (2 mg+5 mg/ml betamethasone) and 1 ml local anesthetic (20 ml 2% prilocaine) was injected peritendinously between the A1 pulley and the flexor tendon sheath. In the second group, a percutaneous A1 pulley release procedure was performed under ultrasound guidance using a 20 G needle, followed by peritendinous injection of the same mixture of corticosteroid and local anesthetic. Patients were evaluated four times: before treatment, at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months after treatment. Modified Quinnel classification, VAS (Visual Analog Scale), and severity of locking scales were used as outcome measures in the study. ;
