Аннотация
STUDY DESIGN: Cross-sectional.
INTRODUCTION: Stenosing flexor tenosynovitis (SFT) is a common hand disease, yet there is a lack of valid standard assessments for this population.
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY: Validation of assessment for the evaluation of disability and quality of life related to SFT clinical severity.
METHODS: Sixty five participants with SFT were matched to 71 controls. Participant's symptoms were graded using the Quinnell classification. Disability and quality of life were evaluated using the DASH and WHOQOL-BREF questionnaires.
RESULTS: Small to moderate correlations were found between SFT grade and the DASH and WHOQOL-BREF. Both questionnaires differentiated between the first and third clinical grades and between SFT and healthy groups.
DISCUSSION: Both questionnaires are useful tools to distinguish between participants with SFT and controls and between mild and severe clinical grades.
CONCLUSION: The DASH and WHOQOL-BREF may be implemented in the clinical management and research of SFT.
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Diagnostic III.
