简要总结
The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effects of water-filtered Infrared-A radiation on patients suffering from hand osteoarthritis. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Does water-filtered Infrared-A radiation reduce pain and improve the function of finger joints over time?
- Are patients satisfied with the treatment results when compared to those who were on a wait-list?
