Brief summary

This study is carried out to find out the degree of pain relief achieved with standard treatment as steroid injection as well as its time to onset. It will recruit 50 subjects over a period of 18 months.

Detailed description

The aim of the study is determine how effective these injections are and when will the patient start feeling relief of his/her symptoms.The aim of the study is not to change the current practice, but provide hand surgeons enough data to clarify their patients the expected outcomes and onset timing of the treatment performed.

Interventions

PROCEDURECorticosteroid Injection

Steroid injection effectiveness will be determined by relief of pain scored by patient using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Data will be collected during clinic visit and contacting patients in a determined protocol for the following 6 weeks after steroid injection.After approval of the study, data will collected from participants over a period of 6 weeks follow up; the whole study will be conducted over a total of 2 years.Since the study will not conduct any further test to participants and follow up regimen will only state pain related to the specific condition (De Quervain tenosynovitis) and quick-DASH score, it will not result in any anticipated/unanticipated incidental findings, therefore participants will not be recontacted.
