Assessment of Functional Outcomes Following Successful Finger Replantation

NCT ID: NCT07029763

Last Updated: 2025-06-19

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: RECRUITING
• Total Enrollment: 20 participants
• Study Classification: OBSERVATIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2025-06-30
• Study Completion Date: 2027-02-28

Brief Summary

The functional outcomes following finger replantation are assessed using a combination of objective measures such as grip strength, range of motion, and sensory testing and subjective evaluations, such as patient-reported outcomes regarding pain, satisfaction, and ability to perform daily activities. Various scoring systems have been developed to standardize the assessment of these outcomes, but differences in methodology, patient demographics, and injury types often make direct comparisons difficult. Despite these challenges, it remains clear that the benefits of replantation extend beyond simply salvaging the digit; the restoration of function is a key determinant in the success of the procedure.
