简要总结
This is a retrospective review of three patients with DeQuervain's Tendinopathy (DQT) that had successful outcomes with a manual therapy focused approach provided by Physical Therapist management.
详细描述
DeQuervain's tendinopathy (DQT) is a musculoskeletal disorder that limits hand function of affected individuals. Management of DQT can include splinting, activity modification, medications, corticosteroid injections, Physical Therapy, and surgery. There is limited evidence to support the combination of manual therapy and exercise interventions within an Orthopaedic Manual Physical Therapy (OMPT) approach when managing patients with DQT. Three patients identified with DQT underwent a multi-modal treatment regimen including carpometacarpal (CMC) thrust and non-thrust manipulation, end range radiocarpal mobilization, mobilization with movement (MWM), strengthening exercises, and grip proprioception training. Outcomes were assessed using the numeric pain rating scale (NPRS), Jamar hand dynamometer grip strength, and the Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (Quick DASH) questionnaire. These measures were administered at baseline and discharge.
