Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To report Cold intolerance by the CISS score in medicolegal patients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Rationale Cold intolerance is an important finding in hand trauma patients, nerve injury, crush injury, degloving injury or amputation. Cold intolerance as a symptom is probably the least responsive to any known medical treatment.

Perhaps due to the fact that we have no control over it, the consequences for cold tolerance are seldom researched. patients involved in medicolegal claims report more pain and less function than controls. Medicolegal examinations for various indications offer a long-term outcome view for the symptoms of cold tolerance. Therefore, together with Handcentrum we want to translate, improve and test the current PROM for cold intolerance CISS

Objective To report Coldintolerance by the CISS score in medicolegal patients.

Study parameters / Endpoints A validated Dutch version of the CISS A report on 100 CISS scores in medicolegal patients Examine if a shorter version of the CISS questionnaire is feasible

Study design 2-3 independent forward translations (e.g. from English into Dutch) by native speakers of the target language (e.g. Dutch). One of the translators understands the concept, one translator has no knowledge of the concept that the questionnaire measures and no medical background.

The translators make a joint forward translation together with an independent person.

2-3 independent back-translations (e.g. from Dutch into English) by native speakers of the source language (e.g. English). Both translators have no knowledge of the concept the questionnaire measures and have no medical background. ... Read more

Burden and risk These questionnaires are mandatory anyway. So, no additional time for the patients needed. There is no risk involved. There is no alteration in the medical or clinical pathway.

Recruitment and consent automatically enrolment and permission via Medisoft software from HandC
