We compared the ceiling effects of two patient-rating
scores, the Disability of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) and
Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation (PRWE), and a physician-rating score,
the Modified Mayo Wrist Score (MMWS) in assessing the outcome of
surgical treatment of an unstable distal radial fracture. A total
of 77 women with a mean age of 64.2 years (50 to 88) who underwent
fixation using a volar locking plate for an unstable distal radial fracture
between 2011 and 2013 were enrolled in this study. All completed
the DASH and PRWE questionnaires one year post-operatively and were
assessed using the MMWS by the senior author. The ceiling effects
in the outcome data assessed for each score were estimated. The data assessed with both patient-rating scores, the DASH and
PRWE, showed substantial ceiling effects, whereas the data assessed
with MMWS showed no ceiling effect. Researchers should be aware of a possible ceiling effect in the
assessment of the outcome of the
Aims. The aims of this study were to describe the epidemiology of metacarpal shaft fractures (MSFs), assess variation in treatment and complications following standard care, document hospital resource use, and explore factors associated with treatment modality. Methods. A multicentre, cross-sectional retrospective study of MSFs at six centres in the UK. We collected and analyzed healthcare records, operative notes, and radiographs of adults presenting within ten days of a MSF affecting the second to fifth metacarpal between 1 August 2016 and 31 July 2017. Total emergency department (ED) attendances were used to estimate prevalence. Results. A total of 793 patients (75% male, 25% female) with 897 MSFs were included, comprising 0.1% of 837,212 ED attendances. The annual incidence of MSF was 40 per 100,000. The median age was 27 years (IQR 21 to 41); the highest incidence was in men aged 16 to 24 years. Transverse fractures were the most common. Over 80% of all fractures were treated non-surgically, with variation across centres. Overall, 12 types of non-surgical and six types of

Aims. The results of surgery for Dupuytren’s disease can be compromised by the potential for disease recurrence and loss of function. Selecting which patients will benefit from repeat surgery, when to operate, and what procedure to undertake requires judgement and an understanding of patient expectations and functional needs. We undertook this study to investigate patient outcomes and satisfaction following repeat limited fasciectomy for recurrent Dupuytren’s disease. Methods. We prospectively identified all patients presenting with recurrence of Dupuytren’s disease who were selected for
Aims. The aim of this study was to compare patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and the Single Assessment Numerical Evaluation (SANE) score in patients treated with a volar locking plate for a distal radial fracture. Methods. This study was a retrospective review of a prospective database of 155 patients who underwent internal fixation with a volar locking plate for a distal radial fracture between August 2014 and April 2017. Data which were collected included postoperative PROMs (Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand questionnaire (DASH) and Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation (PRWE)), and SANE scores at one month (n = 153), two months (n = 155), three months (n = 144), six months (n = 128), and one year (n = 73) after operation. Patients with incomplete data were excluded from this study. Correlation and agreement between PROMs and SANE scores were evaluated. Subgroup analyses were carried out to identify correlations according to variables such as age, the length of follow-up, and subcategories of the PRWE score. Results. The Pearson correlation coefficient (r) between PROMs and SANE scores was -0.76 (p < 0.001) for DASH and -0.72 (p < 0.001) for PRWE, respectively. Limits of agreement between PROMs and ‘100-SANE’ scores were met for at least 93% of the data points. In subgroup analysis, there were significant negative correlations between PROMs and SANE scores for all age groups and for follow-up of more than six months. The correlation coefficient between PRWE subcategories and SANE score was -0.67 (p < 0.001) for PRWE pain score and -0.69 (p < 0.001) for PRWE function score, respectively. Conclusion. We found a significant correlation between postoperative SANE and PROMs in patients treated with a volar locking plate for a distal radial fracture. The SANE score is thus a reliable indicator of outcome for patients who undergo
There is no level I evidence dealing with the optimal period of immobilization for patients with a displaced distal radial fracture following closed reduction. A shorter period might lead to a better functional outcome due to less stiffness and pain. The aim of this study was to investigate whether this period could be safely reduced from six to four weeks. This multicentre randomized controlled trial (RCT) included adult patients with a displaced distal radial fracture, who were randomized to be treated with immobilization in a cast for four or six weeks following closed reduction. The primary outcome measure was the Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation (PRWE) score after follow-up at one year. Secondary outcomes were the abbreviated version of the Disability of Arm, Shoulder and Hand (QuickDASH) score after one year, the functional outcome at six weeks, 12 weeks, and six months, range of motion (ROM), the level of pain after removal of the cast, and complications.Aims

To explore individuals’ experience of a scaphoid waist fracture and its subsequent treatment. A purposive sample was created, consisting of 49 participants in the Scaphoid Waist Internal Fixation for Fractures Trial of initial surgery compared with plaster cast treatment for fractures of the scaphoid waist. The majority of participants were male (35/49) and more younger participants (28/49 aged under 30 years) were included. Participants were interviewed six weeks or 52 weeks post-recruitment to the trial, or at both timepoints. Interviews were semistructured and analyzed inductively to generate cross-cutting themes that typify experience of the injury and views upon the treatment options.Aims
Methods
It is not clear which type of casting provides the best initial treatment in adults with a distal radial fracture. Given that between 32% and 64% of adequately reduced fractures redisplace during immobilization in a cast, preventing redisplacement and a disabling malunion or secondary surgery is an aim of treatment. In this study, we investigated whether circumferential casting leads to fewer fracture redisplacements and better one-year outcomes compared to plaster splinting. In a pragmatic, open-label, multicentre, two-period cluster-randomized superiority trial, we compared these two types of casting. Recruitment took place in ten hospitals. Eligible patients aged ≥ 18 years with a displaced distal radial fracture, which was acceptably aligned after closed reduction, were included. The primary outcome measure was the rate of redisplacement within five weeks of immobilization. Secondary outcomes were the rate of complaints relating to the cast, clinical outcomes at three months, patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) (using the numerical rating scale (NRS), the abbreviated version of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (QuickDASH), and Patient-Rated Wrist/Hand Evaluation (PRWHE) scores), and adverse events such as the development of compartment syndrome during one year of follow-up. We used multivariable mixed-effects logistic regression for the analysis of the primary outcome measure.Aims
Methods
The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the rate of conversion to surgical release after a steroid injection in patients with a trigger finger, and to analyze which patient- and trigger finger-related factors affect the outcome of an injection. The medical records of 500 patients (754 fingers) treated for one or more trigger fingers with a steroid injection or with surgical release, between 1 January 2016 and 1 April 2020 with a follow-up of 12 months, were analyzed. Conversion to surgical release was recorded as an unsuccessful treatment after an injection. The effect of patient- and trigger finger-related characteristics on the outcome of an injection was assessed using stepwise manual backward multivariate logistic regression analysis.Aims
Methods
Dupuytren’s contracture is characterized by increased fibrosis of the palmar aponeurosis, with eventual replacement of the surrounding fatty tissue with palmar fascial fibromatosis. We hypothesized that adipocytokines produced by adipose tissue in contact with the palmar aponeurosis might promote fibrosis of the palmar aponeurosis. We compared the expression of the adipocytokines adiponectin and leptin in the adipose tissue surrounding the palmar aponeurosis of male patients with Dupuytren’s contracture, and of male patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) as the control group. We also examined the effects of adiponectin on fibrosis-related genes and proteins expressed by fibroblasts in the palmar aponeurosis of patients with Dupuytren’s contracture.Aims
Methods
The primary aim of this study was to describe long-term patient-reported outcomes after ulna shortening osteotomy for ulna impaction syndrome. Overall, 89 patients treated between July 2011 and November 2017 who had previously taken part in a routine outcome evaluation up to 12 months postoperatively were sent an additional questionnaire in February 2021. The primary outcome was the Patient-Rated Wrist and Hand Evaluation (PRWHE) total score. Secondary outcomes included patient satisfaction with treatment results, complications, and subsequent treatment for ulnar-sided wrist pain. Linear mixed models were used to compare preoperative, 12 months, and late follow-up (ranging from four to nine years) PRWHE scores.Aims

Osteoarthritis (OA) affecting the thumb carpometacarpal joint (CMCJ) is a common painful condition. In this study, we aimed to explore clinicians’ approach to management with a particular focus on the role of specific interventions that will inform the design of future clinical trials. We interviewed a purposive sample of 24 clinicians, consisting of 12 surgeons and 12 therapists (four occupational therapists and eight physiotherapists) who managed patients with CMCJ OA. This is a qualitative study using semi-structured, online interviews. Interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed using thematic analysis.Aims
Methods
The aim of this study was to assess and compare active rotation of the forearm in normal subjects after the application of a short-arm cast (SAC) in the semisupination position and a long-arm cast (LAC) in the neutral position. A clinical study was also conducted to compare the functional outcomes of using a SAC in the semisupination position with those of using a LAC in the neutral position in patients who underwent arthroscopic triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) foveal repair. A total of 40 healthy right-handed volunteers were recruited. Active pronation and supination of the forearm were measured in each subject using a goniometer. In the retrospective clinical study, 40 patients who underwent arthroscopic foveal repair were included. The wrist was immobilized postoperatively using a SAC in the semisupination position (approximately 45°) in 16 patients and a LAC in 24. Clinical outcomes were assessed using grip strength and patient-reported outcomes. The degree of disability caused by cast immobilization was also evaluated when the cast was removed.Aims
Methods
The primary aim of this study was to assess if traumatic triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) tears can be treated successfully with immobilization alone. Our secondary aims were to identify clinical factors that may predict a poor prognosis. This was a retrospective analysis of 89 wrists in 88 patients between January 2015 and January 2019. All patients were managed conservatively initially with either a short-arm or above-elbow custom-moulded thermoplastic splint for six weeks. Outcome measures recorded included a visual analogue scale for pain, Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation, Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand score, and the modified Mayo Wrist Score (MMWS). Patients were considered to have had a poor outcome if their final MMWS was less than 80 points, or if they required eventual surgical intervention. Univariate and logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent predictors for a poor outcome.Aims
Methods
With novel promising therapies potentially limiting progression of Dupuytren’s disease (DD), better patient stratification is needed. We aimed to quantify DD development and progression after seven years in a population-based cohort, and to identify factors predictive of disease development or progression. All surviving participants from our previous prevalence study were invited to participate in the current prospective cohort study. Participants were examined for presence of DD and Iselin’s classification was applied. They were asked to complete comprehensive questionnaires. Disease progression was defined as advancement to a further Iselin stage or surgery. Potential predictive factors were assessed using multivariable regression analyses. Of 763 participants in our original study, 398 were available for further investigation seven years later.Aims
Methods
Fixation of scaphoid nonunion with a volar locking plate and cancellous bone grafting has been shown to be a successful technique in small series. Few mid- or long-term follow-up studies have been reported. The aim of this study was to report the mid-term radiological and functional outcome of plate fixation for scaphoid nonunion. Patients with a scaphoid nonunion were prospectively enrolled and treated with open reduction using a volar approach, debridement of the nonunion, and fixation using a locking plate and cancellous bone grafting, from the ipsilateral iliac crest. Follow-up included examination, functional assessment using the patient-rated wrist/hand evaluation (PRWHE), and multiplanar reformation CT scans at three-month intervals until union was confirmed.Aims

The aim of this study was to evaluate the need for hand trauma services during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown, specifically related to surgical requirements. This will provide useful information for planning and resource allocation in the event of any further lockdown. A prospective analsysis of all patients attending our hand trauma unit throughout the UK COVID-19 lockdown period (24 March to 10 May 2020) was carried out. Prospectively collected departmental data from the same period in 2019 was obtained and reviewed for comparison. The number of patients attending clinic, undergoing surgery, the type of surgical procedure, and rate of surgery was compared.Aims

Brachial plexus injury (BPI) is an often devastating injury that affects patients physically and emotionally. The vast majority of the published literature is based on surgeon-graded assessment of motor outcomes, but the patient experience after BPI is not well understood. Our aim was to better understand overall life satisfaction after BPI, with the goal of identifying areas that can be addressed in future delivery of care. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 15 BPI patients after initial nerve reconstruction. The interview guide was focused on the patient’s experience after BPI, beginning with the injury itself and extending beyond surgical reconstruction. Inductive and deductive thematic analysis was used according to standard qualitative methodology to better understand overall life satisfaction after BPI, contributors to life satisfaction, and opportunities for improvement.Aims

Base of thumb osteoarthritis (BTOA) is a common age-related disease which has a significant negative impact upon quality of life. Our aim was to assess current UK practice in secondary care with regard to the nature of non-surgical treatments, the surgical procedures most commonly performed, and factors influencing the surgical decision-making process. Ten consecutive patients undergoing surgery for BTOA between March 2017 and May 2019 were prospectively identified in 15 UK centres. Demographic details, duration of symptoms, radiological grade, non-surgical management strategies, and surgery conducted were recorded. A supplementary consultant questionnaire consisting of four multiple-choice-questions (MCQ) based on hypothetical clinical scenarios was distributed.Aims

We hypothesized that the wide-awake local anaesthesia with no tourniquet (WALANT) technique is cost-effective, easy to use, safe, and reproducible, with a low learning curve towards mastery, having a high patient satisfaction rate. Furthermore, WALANT would be a suitable alternative for the austere and developing nation environments where lack of funds and resources are a common issue. This was a randomized control trial of 169 patients who required surgery for closed isolated distal radius fractures. The study was performed between March 2016 and April 2019 at a public sector level 1 trauma centre. General anaesthesia was used in 56 patients, Bier’s block in 58 patients, and WALANT in 55 patients. Data were collected on pre-, peri-, and postoperative parameters, clinical outcome, hospital costs, and patient satisfaction. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used with a p-value of 0.05 being significant.Aims
Methods
The aim of this study was to investigate whether clinical and radiological outcomes after intramedullary nailing of displaced fractures of the fifth metacarpal neck using a single thick Kirschner wire (K-wire) are noninferior to those of technically more demanding fixation with two thinner dual wires. This was a multicentre, parallel group, randomized controlled noninferiority trial conducted at 12 tertiary trauma centres in Germany. A total of 290 patients with acute displaced fractures of the fifth metacarpal neck were randomized to either intramedullary single-wire (n = 146) or dual-wire fixation (n = 144). The primary outcome was the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) questionnaire six months after surgery, with a third of the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) used as the noninferiority threshold. Secondary outcomes were pain, health-related quality of life (EuroQol five-dimensional questionnaire (EQ-5D)), radiological measures, functional deficits, and complications.Aims
Patients and Methods
The aim of this meta-analysis was to assess the safety and efficacy
of collagenase clostridium histolyticum compared with fasciectomy
and percutaneous needle fasciotomy (PNF) for Dupuytren’s disease. We systematically searched PubMed, EMBASE, LILACS, Web of Science,
Cochrane, Teseo and the ClinicalTrials.gov registry for clinical
trials and cohort or case-control studies which compared the clinical
outcomes and adverse effects of collagenase with those of fasciectomy
or PNF. Of 1345 articles retrieved, ten were selected. They described
the outcomes of 425 patients treated with collagenase and 418 treated
by fasciectomy or PNF. Complications were assessed using inverse-variance
weighted odds ratios (ORs). Clinical efficacy was assessed by differences
between the means for movement of the joint before and after treatment.
Dose adjustment was applied in all cases.Aims

The aims of this study were to evaluate the clinical and radiological
outcomes of the Universal-2 total wrist arthroplasty (TWA) in patients
with rheumatoid arthritis. This was a retrospective review of all 95 Universal-2 TWAs which
were performed in our institution between 2003 to 2012 in patients
with rheumatoid arthritis. A total of six patients were lost to
follow-up and two died of unrelated causes. A total of ten patients
had bilateral procedures. Accordingly, 75 patients (85 TWAs) were
included in the study. There were 59 women and 16 men with a mean
age of 59 years (26 to 86). The mean follow-up was 53 months (24
to 120). Clinical assessment involved recording pain on a visual
analogue score, range of movement, grip strength, the Quick Disabilities
of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) and Wrightington wrist scores.
Any adverse effects were documented with particular emphasis on
residual pain, limitation of movement, infection, dislocation and
the need for revision surgery. Radiographic assessment was performed pre-operatively and at
three, six and 12 months post-operatively, and annually thereafter.
Arthroplasties were assessed for distal row intercarpal fusion and
loosening. Radiolucent zones around the components were documented
according to a system developed at our institution.Aims
Patients and Methods
We performed a systematic review of the current literature regarding
the outcomes of unconstrained metacarpophalangeal joint (MCPJ) arthroplasty. We initially identified 1305 studies, and 406 were found to be
duplicates. After exclusion criteria were applied, seven studies
were included. Outcomes extracted included pre- and post-operative
pain visual analogue scores, range of movement (ROM), strength of
pinch and grip, satisfaction and patient reported outcome measures
(PROMs). Clinical and radiological complications were recorded.
The results are presented in three groups based on the design of
the arthroplasty and the aetiology (pyrocarbon-osteoarthritis (pyro-OA),
pyrocarbon-inflammatory arthritis (pyro-IA), metal-on-polyethylene
(MoP)).Aims
Materials and Methods
There is no consensus on the benefit of arthroscopically
assisted reduction of the articular surface combined with fixation
using a volar locking plate for the treatment of intra-articular
distal radial fractures. In this study we compared the functional
and radiographic outcomes of fluoroscopically and arthroscopically
guided reduction of these fractures. Between February 2009 and May 2013, 74 patients with unilateral
unstable intra-articular distal radial fractures were randomised
equally into the two groups for treatment. The mean age of these
74 patients was 64 years (24 to 92). We compared functional outcomes
including active range of movement of the wrist, grip strength and Disabilities
of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand scores at six and 48 weeks; and radiographic
outcomes that included gap, step, radial inclination, volar angulation
and ulnar variance. There were no significant differences between the techniques
with regard to functional outcomes or radiographic parameters. The
mean gap and step in the fluoroscopic and arthroscopic groups were
comparable at 0.9 mm (standard deviation Arthroscopic reduction conferred no advantage over conventional
fluoroscopic guidance in achieving anatomical reduction of intra-articular
distal radial fractures when using a volar locking plate. Cite this article:
We present an economic evaluation using data
from the Distal Radius Acute Fracture Fixation Trial (DRAFFT) to compare
the relative cost effectiveness of percutaneous Kirschner wire (K-wire)
fixation and volar locking-plate fixation for patients with dorsally-displaced
fractures of the distal radius. The cost effectiveness analysis (cost per quality-adjusted life
year; QALY) was derived from a multi-centre, two-arm, parallel group,
assessor-blind, randomised controlled trial which took place in
18 trauma centres in the United Kingdom. Data from 460 patients
were available for analysis, which includes both a National Health
Service cost perspective including costs of surgery, implants and
healthcare resource use over a 12-month period after surgery, and
a societal perspective, which includes the cost of time off work
and the need for additional private care. There was only a small difference in QALYs gained for patients
treated with locking-plate fixation over those treated with K-wires.
At a mean additional cost of £714 (95% confidence interval 588 to
865) per patient, locking-plate fixation presented an incremental
cost effectiveness ratio (ICER) of £89 322 per QALY within the first
12 months of treatment. Sensitivity analyses were undertaken to
assess the ICER of locking-plate fixation compared with K-wires.
These were greater than £30 000. Compared with locking-plate fixation, K-wire fixation is a ‘cost
saving’ intervention, with similar health benefits. Cite this article:
We hypothesised that the use of pulsed electromagnetic
field (PEMF) bone growth stimulation in acute scaphoid fractures
would significantly shorten the time to union and reduce the number
of nonunions in a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled multicentre
trial. A total of 102 patients (78 male, 24 female; mean age 35
years (18 to 77)) from five different medical centres with a unilateral
undisplaced acute scaphoid fracture were randomly allocated to PEMF
(n = 51) or placebo (n = 51) and assessed with regard to functional
and radiological outcomes (multiplanar reconstructed CT scans) at
6, 9, 12, 24 and 52 weeks. The overall time to clinical and radiological healing
did not differ significantly between the active PEMF group and the
placebo group. We concluded that the addition of PEMF bone growth
stimulation to the conservative treatment of acute scaphoid fractures
does not accelerate bone healing. Cite this article:
In Canada, Dupuytren's contracture is managed
with partial fasciectomy or percutaneous needle aponeurotomy (PNA).
Injectable collagenase will soon be available. The optimal management
of Dupuytren’s contracture is controversial and trade-offs exist
between the different methods. Using a cost-utility analysis approach,
our aim was to identify the most cost-effective form of treatment
for managing Dupuytren’s contracture it and the threshold at which
collagenase is cost-effective. We developed an expected-value decision
analysis model for Dupuytren’s contracture affecting a single finger,
comparing the cost-effectiveness of fasciectomy, aponeurotomy and collagenase
from a societal perspective. Cost-effectiveness, one-way sensitivity
and variability analyses were performed using standard thresholds
for cost effective treatment ($50 000 to $100 000/QALY gained).
Percutaneous needle aponeurotomy was the preferred strategy for
managing contractures affecting a single finger. The cost-effectiveness
of primary aponeurotomy improved when repeated to treat recurrence.
Fasciectomy was not cost-effective. Collagenase was cost-effective
relative to and preferred over aponeurotomy at $875 and $470 per
course of treatment, respectively. In summary, our model supports the trend towards non-surgical
interventions for managing Dupuytren’s contracture affecting a single
finger. Injectable collagenase will only be feasible in our publicly
funded healthcare system if it costs significantly less than current
United States pricing. Cite this article:
Damage to the cartilage of the distal radioulnar
joint frequently leads to pain and limitation of movement, therefore repair
of this joint cartilage would be highly desirable. The purpose of
this study was to investigate the fixation of scaffold in cartilage
defects of this joint as part of matrix-assisted regenerative autologous
cartilage techniques. Two techniques of fixation of collagen scaffolds,
one involving fibrin glue alone and one with fibrin glue and sutures, were
compared in artificially created cartilage defects of the distal
radioulnar joint in a human cadaver. After being subjected to continuous
passive rotation, the methods of fixation were evaluated for cover
of the defect and pull out force. No statistically significant differences were found between the
two techniques for either cover of the defect or integrity of the
scaffold. However, a significantly increased mean pull out force
was found for the combined procedure, 0.665 N (0.150 to 1.160) This suggests that although successful fixation of a collagen
type I/III scaffold in a distal radioulnar joint cartilage defect
is feasible with both forms of fixation, fixation with glue and
sutures is preferable. Cite this article:
The purpose of this study was to evaluate treatment
results following arthroscopic triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC)
debridement for recalcitrant ulnar wrist pain. According to the
treatment algorithm, 66 patients (36 men and 30 women with a mean
age of 38.1 years (15 to 67)) with recalcitrant ulnar wrist pain
were allocated to undergo ulnar shortening osteotomy (USO; n = 24),
arthroscopic TFCC repair (n = 15), arthroscopic TFCC debridement
(n = 14) or prolonged conservative treatment (n = 13). The mean
follow-up was 36.0 months (15 to 54). Significant differences in
Hand20 score at 18 months were evident between the USO group and
TFCC debridement group (p = 0.003), and between the TFCC repair
group and TFCC debridement group (p = 0.029). Within-group comparisons showed
that Hand20 score at five months or later and pain score at two
months or later were significantly decreased in the USO/TFCC repair
groups. In contrast, scores in the TFCC debridement/conservative
groups did not decrease significantly. Grip strength at 18 months
was significantly improved in the USO/TFCC repair groups, but not
in the TFCC debridement/conservative groups. TFCC debridement shows
little benefit on the clinical course of recalcitrant ulnar wrist
pain even after excluding patients with ulnocarpal abutment or TFCC
detachment from the fovea from the indications for arthroscopic
TFCC debridement. Cite this article:
