Brief Summary

The investigators believe that these information forms, exercise forms and video recordings that provide patient education will contribute to the collaborative approach of the patient and the clinician, the patient's participation in the treatment, the expectation of treatment and results, and their autonomy. The contribution of patient information forms, exercise forms and video recordings, which have become very important in recent years, to different degrees of results will be questioned.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Impact of Event Scale-Revised

  This scale is a 22-item self-report measure that assesses subjective distress caused by traumatic events. Items are rated on a 5-point scale ranging from 0 ("not at all") to 4 ("extremely"). The total score ranges from 0 to 88. A higher score indicates more affection for the traumatic event.

  The evaluation were completed in the first session when the patient applied to the hand rehabilitation unit, and it was also repeated at 3th months after the surgery or conservative treatment.

• State-trait Anxiety Inventory

  This inventory was developed by Spielberger et al. (1970) to measure anxiety from the perspective of states vs. traits. The state measurement assesses how the individual feels "right now" or at this moment. The range of possible scores is from a minimum score of 20 to a maximum score of 80. Scores are commonly classified as "no or low anxiety" (20-37), "moderate anxiety" (38-44), and "high anxiety" (45-80).

  The evaluation were completed in the first session when the patient applied to the hand rehabilitation unit, and it was also repeated at 3th months after the surgery or conservative treatment.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Grip and Pinch Strength

  The evaluation were completed in the first session when the patient applied to the hand rehabilitation unit, and it was also repeated at 3th months after the surgery or conservative treatment.

• Michigan Hand Outcomes Questionnaire

  The evaluation were completed in the first session when the patient applied to the hand rehabilitation unit, and it was also repeated at 3th months after the surgery or conservative treatment.

Study Arms (3)

verbal explanation group

EXPERIMENTAL

The treatment by the diagnosis will be explained under the guidance of the therapist and will be repeated at each appointment to the first group.

Other: hand rehabilitation with verbal explanation

patient information and exercise forms group

EXPERIMENTAL

Treatment by the diagnosis will be provided with patient information and exercise forms containing visual and written information in addition to an explanation under the guidance of the therapist for the second group.

Other: hand rehabilitation with patient information and exercise forms

video recording group

EXPERIMENTAL

Treatment by diagnosis will be provided with patient information containing visual and written information, exercise forms, and video recording, in addition to narration under the guidance of the therapist for the third group.

Other: hand rehabilitation with video recording

Interventions

hand rehabilitation with verbal explanation OTHER

Patients in all groups will undergo a 12-week hand rehabilitation process that includes the use of appropriate orthoses if necessary, approaches to edema and pain, restoration of joint range of motion, strengthening, and functional return to work or activities. The application of the rehabilitation process will change according to the assigned group.
