Article Synopsis
- Osteoarthritis (OA) is a growing cause of disability, particularly in hand OA, where there's limited research on effective treatments compared to knee and hip OA.
- This study aims to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of surgical treatment (denervation of the proximal interphalangeal joint) against a program of patient education and exercise for managing pain and function in hand OA.
- The trial involves 90 participants divided into two groups, with various outcome measures assessed over a year, to determine if either treatment could serve as a primary option for pain management in PIP OA.
