Registration Number
NCT05356624
Lead Sponsor
Riphah International University
Brief Summary

this study will investigate the effects of mobilization with movement in addition to soft tissue mobilization on pain and range of motion in patients suffering from De Quervain Tenosynovitis.

Detailed Description

De quervain tenosynovitis also known as stenosing tenosynovitis is a condition which occur when tendons at the base of thumb pinched and become irritated. Several treatment options are available like ultrasound, Graston therapy, thrust or non-thrust manipulation, mobilization with movement, soft tissue mobilization but this study focus on 2 treatments to improve malalignment of the joint and also reduce pain. First treatment is mobilization with movement in which passive accessory mobilization from therapist while active mobility is performed by patient. Second technique is soft tissue mobilization in which passive glides are applied. The purpose of study is to make comparison between mobilization with movement and soft tissue mobilization.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Visual analogue scale3 months

It is a 100 mm scale drawn on a paper to determine the level or intensity of pain in range of (0 to 10)

Goniometry3 months

The science of measuring the joint ranges in each plane of the joint is called goniometry.

Goniometer is a device that measures an angle or permits the rotation of an object to a definite position. Neck flexion, extension, side bending and rotation will be assessed
