Pilot Study on The Effectiveness of Relative Motion Orthosis in Finger Motion

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The purpose of this feasibility pilot study is to determine the effectiveness of Relative Motion Orthosis (RMO) in regaining finger range of motion compared to standard care in patients diagnosed with Proximal Interphalangeal (PIP) stiffness with an extension lag secondary to finger injury. Participants will be enrolled and randomized into groups receiving either standard conservative interventions or standard interventions in addition to the RMO. The primary endpoint is to evaluate the efficacy of relative motion orthosis in PIP ROM using clinical scoring and physical exam findings.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Ages Eligible for Study:18 Years to 80 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:ADULT, OLDER_ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * Age range 18-80
  2. * Any gender
  3. * Any Proximal Interphalangeal (PIP) injury that causes reduced PIP Active Range of Motion (AROM) in extension
  4. * Right or left hand injury
  5. * Level of Chronicity (4 weeks - 6 months)
  6. * Able to follow instructions
  1. * PIP with hard end feel (feels they need serial casting) - level of chronicity
  2. * Any digital nerve injury / skin laceration that can prevent the patient from using the orthosis
  3. * Severe arthropathy
  4. * Literacy deficits: patients need to be able to follow verbal and written instructions independently to minimize risks and improve outcomes from care.
