Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness of two splint designs in conservative management of trigger finger.

Detailed Description

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

This study aims to analyse and compare the effectiveness of metacarpophalangeal joint blocking splint versus relative motion extension splint for trigger finger. This will help us find out which one of the two splint designs is more effective in the management of trigger finger, thus improving treatment outcomes for patients with trigger finger.
