Brief Summary

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

The human and economic impact of hand and upper limb pathologies, whether acute or chronic, surgical or medical, is considerable on a national level. Hand wounds and traumas account for 1/3 of work-related accidents and their consequences. The surgical procedure and its technical quality are essential, but so is the re-education and rehabilitation phase. It is in this post-operative context that sophrology and art therapy could have their place. Literature in this precise field is non-existent. A study is therefore needed to determine the quality of life, feasibility and acceptability of these new techniques in the rehabilitation department of the Édouard Herriot Hospital's Hand and Upper Limb Surgery Unit.

Sophrology and art therapy could help to limit upper-limb sequelae by promoting confidence-building and functional participation, thus helping patients to return more quickly to an active life. Given the current state of knowledge, the hypothesis being tested is that, within the framework of an existing multi-disciplinary team, art therapy and sophrology could improve quality of life and find favorable adherence on the part of patients usually cared for in the upper limb surgery department.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Art-therapy and sophrology evaluation

Each patient eligible for the study will, additionally to the standard care have repeated sessions of sophrology and/or art-therapy along the re-education process. Quality of life as well as anxiety, pain will be assessed before and after each session and at the begining and the end of the re-education process

No interventions assigned to this group
