简要总结
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of relative motion splint and metacarpophalangeal joint blocking splints in terms of sign and symptoms, hand function, occupational performance, and perception of splint wearability (comfort and satisfaction) after six weeks of TF management.

结局指标
主要结局
Stages of Stenosing Tenosynovitis (SST)
时间窗: Baseline, 6 weeks after splint wear
SST is a grading system that divides trigger finger into six stages. Stage 1 is normal; Stage 2 is uneven finger movement; Stage 3 is triggering or clicking or catching; Stage 4 is locking of finger in flexion or extension, which can be unlocked by active finger movement; Stage 5 is locking of finger in flexion or extension, which requires application of passive force to unlock; and Stage 6 is locked finger in flexion or extension
次要结局
- Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain(Baseline, 6 weeks after splint wear)
- Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) Outcome Measure(Baseline, 6 weeks after splint wear)
- Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM)(Baseline, 6 weeks after splint wear)
- Number of triggering events in ten active fists(Baseline, 6 weeks after splint wear)
- Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for splint comfort(Baseline, 3 and 6 weeks after splint wear)
- Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for splint satisfaction(Baseline, 3 and 6 weeks after splint wear)
