Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| - Convalescence: return to function and return to work - VAS score: standardized list of questions about pain and well-being of the patient; to register the pain of the hand and donor site. - Contracture reductions: 1) Total passive extension deficity (TPED): the sum of the passive extension deficits of the metacarpophalangeal, proximal interphalangeal, and distal interphalangeal joints. 2) Boyes measure: measuring the distance from pulp to distal palmar crease with the hand in a maximum fist position. Flexion is defined as reduced if the distance is more than 1.5 cm. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Intervention: o Register the anaesthetics drugs administered and vital signs during surgery. o Register of arthrolysis (if it is used) Hand sensibility and complications due to intervention: o Semmes Weinstein testo Swelling measured following hand volume o DASH score: standardized list of questions about hand and arm function of the patient o CISS-score: cold-intollerance o Esthetic and contracture correction: Kodak photos o EQ-5D: cost-effectiveness o MRI: fat monitoring o cord: investigate the new intervention technique Patients satisfaction: o To determine the patient satisfaction, a questionaire with VAS-scale was made. | — |
