研究组 & 干预措施
Paraffin Bath Therapy
Paraffin bath therapy is a physical therapy method that can create a temperature increase of 7.5 °C in the joint capsule and 4.5 °C in the muscle.
干预措施: Paraffin Bath Therapy (Device)
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy
Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is a noninvasive treatment that involves delivery of shock waves to injured soft tissue to reduce pain and promote healing.
干预措施: Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (Device)
结局指标
主要结局
Duruöz Hand Index (DHI)
时间窗: 6 weeks after baseline (one month after the end of treatment)
Duruöz Hand Index (DHI) is a functional disability scale that can be used successfully to assess the functional disability with different hand arthropathies. It consists of 18 items that evaluate hand and wrist activities. The answers are evaluated on a 6-level (0-5) Likert scale and the total score ranges from 0 to 90.
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
时间窗: 6 weeks after baseline (one month after the end of treatment)
patient's self-assessment of pain, in the range of 0 to 10, higher scores mean a worse
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
时间窗: at baseline (before the treatment)
patient's self-assessment of pain, in the range of 0 to 10, higher scores mean a worse
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
时间窗: 2 weeks after baseline (at the end of treatment)
patient's self-assessment of pain, in the range of 0 to 10, higher scores mean a worse
