Reliability of Pinch Strength Testing in Elderly Subjects with Unilateral Thumb Carpometacarpal Osteoarthritis
[Purpose] The aim of this study was to examine the test-retest reliability of pinch strength testing in elderly subjects with thumb CMC OA. [Subjects and Methods] A total of 27 patients with unilateral right-thumb CMC OA (mean ± SD age: 81.3 ± 4.7 years) were recruited. Each patient performed three pain-free maximal isometric contractions on each hand on two occasions, one week apart. Three dif...
متن کاملCORR Insights®: Medical services and associated costs vary widely among surgeons treating patients with hand osteoarthritis.
O ur profession must demonstrate that the costs of the care we provide are well justified. Becker and colleagues thoroughly examine this issue in the context of hand osteoarthritis. By assessing several variables relevant to patients receiving treatment for hand osteoarthritis against the Medicare costs incurred, this study measures cost variability and identifies predictors of increased expend...
متن کاملRadial nerve mobilisation had bilateral sensory effects in people with thumb carpometacarpal osteoarthritis: a randomised trial.
QUESTION In people with thumb carpometacarpal osteoarthritis, does radial nerve mobilisation to the affected hand reduce pressure pain sensitivity in the contralateral hand? DESIGN Secondary analysis of data from a randomised trial with concealed allocation, assessor blinding, and intention-to-treat analysis. PARTICIPANTS Sixty people with thumb CMC osteoarthritis in the dominant hand aged ...
متن کاملComparison of two carpometacarpal stabilizing splints for individuals with thumb osteoarthritis.
UNLABELLED Splinting the thumb in carpometacarpal osteoarthritis (CMC OA) is a common practice; however, research evidence is lacking to support the use of one specific splint design. The purpose of the study was to compare the effect of two different splints on hand function, pain, and hand strength in adults with CMC OA. Fifty-six participants were assigned randomly to splint order in a two-p...
متن کاملHow Do Sex, Age, and Osteoarthritis Affect Cartilage Thickness at the Thumb Carpometacarpal Joint? Insights from Subject-Specific Cartilage Modeling
Studying the morphology of the thumb carpometacarpal (CMC) joint cartilage in both health and disease is warranted by the high incidence of CMC osteoarthritis (OA), especially in older women; however, quantifying CMC cartilage variation in vivo remains challenging with current modalities. We used a subjectspecific cartilage model that is based on joint space volume computations from sequential ...
