结局指标
主要结局
Brief Michigan Hand Questionnaire Score Difference
时间窗: 1 month postoperatively.
A patient reported measure of hand function on a scale of 1 to 100. 100 indicates better hand function and 1 indicates worse hand function. The measure is obtained form a survey that has been published in multiple peer reviewed articles. This score can be subtracted from preoperative score to obtain a difference in score of preoperative compared to postoperative.
