NCT03821298

Brief Summary

In this clinical trial, females with a diagnosis of thumb CMC OA, will be recruited. The primary outcome of potential risk factors of osteoarthritis, pain and function will be measured using the demographic data, visual analog scale (VAS) and Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (QuickDASH). Secondary out-comes will include the Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (PSEQ), Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK), Fear Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire (FABQ), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and Impairment and Functioning Inventory (IFI). Measurements will be taken at the baseline, three, six and 12 months follow up.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Change from baseline to 12 months Visual Analog Scale (VAS)

    Pain scale VAS; 0: no pain, 100: maximum pain

    baseline, three, six and 12 months follow up

  • Change from baseline to 12 months Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand

    Self Report Function,QuickDash scores range from 0 to 100, higher scores means more dysfunction

    baseline, three, six and 12 months follow up

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Change from baseline to 12 months using the Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire

    baseline, three, six and 12 months follow up

  • Change from baseline to 12 months using the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia

    baseline, three, six and 12 months follow up

  • Change from baseline to 12 months using the Fear Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire

    baseline, three, six and 12 months follow up

  • Change from baseline to 12 months using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale

    baseline, three, six and 12 months follow up

  • Change in from baseline to 12 months using the Impairment and Functioning Inventory

    baseline, three, six and 12 months follow up
