Background: Both trapeziectomy with ligament reconstruction and tendon interposition trapeziometacarpal arthrodesis are commonly performed procedures for the treatment of osteoarthritis. The purpose this study was to compare outcomes both treatments symptomatic osteoarthritis thumb joint in a randomized trial. Methods: Women who were forty years age or older either plate screws. Patients evaluated preoperatively at three twelve months postoperatively respect pain, function (Patient-Rated...
The aim of this double anonymized, randomized controlled trial was to determine whether total joint arthroplasty has superior outcomes than trapeziectomy 1 year after surgery for trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis. A 62 women aged 40 years and older, scheduled stage II or III osteoarthritis the joint, were included arthroplasty. primary outcome score Michigan Hand Outcomes Questionnaire. Secondary Questionnaire subscale scores, Disability Arm, Shoulder Questionnaire, active range motion,...
Background Soft-robotic gloves with an assist-as-needed control have the ability to assist daily activities where needed, while stimulating active and highly functional movements within user’s possibilities. Employment of hand glove support might act as training for unsupported function. Objective To evaluate therapeutic effect a grip-supporting soft-robotic assistive device at home during activities. Methods This multicentre intervention trial consisted 3 pre-assessments (averaged if steady...
Decline of hand function, especially reduced strength, is a common problem that can be caused by many disorders and results in difficulties performing activities daily living. A wearable soft robotic glove may solution, enabling use the affected arm repeatedly during functional providing intensive task-specific training simultaneously with assistance function.We aim to investigate therapeutic effect an assistive (Carbonhand).This multicenter uncontrolled intervention study consists 3...
Introduction It is unclear whether rehabilitation with the use of an exercise program can be alternative to surgery in distal radioulnar joint instability resulting from injuries triangular fibrocartilage complex. The purpose this study was gain insights into feasibility and effects reducing pain functional limitations by using stability training. Methods A prospective pilot cohort intervention used including patients a complex Palmer 1B lesion instability. primary objective reduction as...
This study presents the outcomes of a 5-year personalized integrative coaching program for adults with obesity (body mass index BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2), based upon systems health perspective, during first 2 years. longitudinal study, which had an evolutionary design, included all who enrolled in program. Health-related quality life (HRQoL) was measured Short Form-36 (SF-36), and physical weight, waist circumference, aerobic capacity, lipid profile, HbA1c. Subsequently, participants completed...
Introduction Aim of this study was to determine whether postoperative supervised rehabilitation improves functional outcomes after trapeziometacarpal (TMC) total joint arthroplasty (TJA), compared education alone. Method A quasi-experimental before-after trial included 31 women (≥40 years) per group diagnosed with osteoarthritis who underwent TJA. cohort ( n = 31) given alone a were subjected rehabilitation. Primary outcome the difference in hand function 3 months postoperatively, measured...
Current obesity management strategies are failing to achieve sustainable and favorable long-term results. We propose a more personalized, dynamic, systemic perspective on the interactions of key determinants coaching advice obesity. The aim this study was use systems view overweight, complexity science, transdisciplinary process develop five-year personalized integrative obesity-coaching research program. Managers, medical specialists, clinical psychologists, dieticians, physical-...
In an ongoing study, assistive wearable soft-robotic glove is tested at home for 6 weeks by subjects with decreased handgrip strength, due to different hand injuries or diseases, assess whether use of this grip-supporting will result in improved strength/ function. An interim analysis the available dataset 46 participants showed that (unsupported) grip strength and function after using as aid during activities daily living (ADLs) home. After ended, maintained least 4 weeks. Considering...
The development of virtual reality technologies promises new opportunities for mirror therapy. It allows the addition gamification elements and gives patients opportunity to practice independently, in their own time at location. Even though studies show positive difference between standard therapy, underlying factors that could impact these differences are yet be studied. In this study therapy using a real was compared setup terms psychophysical effects, usability, presence healthy...
