OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether, in patients with trauma and soft tissue injuries of the wrist, hand and/or fingers, an exercise program performed on a touchscreen tablet-based app reduces the consumption of face-to-face resources and improves clinical recovery, compared to a conventional home exercise program prescribed on paper.
DESIGN: Pragmatic, multicentre, parallel, two-group, controlled clinical trial with blinded assessor.
PARTICIPANTS AND SETTING: Eighty-one patients with traumatic bone and/or soft tissue injuries of the hand, wrist and/or fingers recruited in four hospitals of the Andalusian Public Health System.
INTERVENTIONS: The experimental group received a home exercise program using a touchscreen tablet application and the control group received a home exercise program on paper. Both groups received the same treatment of face-to-face physiotherapy.
PRIMARY OUTCOME: Number of physiotherapy sessions. Secondary outcomes were the duration of physiotherapy and clinical variables such as functional ability, grip strength, pain and manual dexterity.
RESULTS: The experimental group required fewer physiotherapy sessions (MD -11,5 sessions; 95% CI -21.4 to -1.4), showed a shorter duration of physiotherapy (MD -3.8 weeks, 95% CI -7 to -1) and had better recovery of grip strength, pain and dexterity compared to the control group.
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with trauma and soft tissue injuries of the wrist, hand and/or fingers, an exercise program performed on a touchscreen tablet-based app in combination with face-to-face physiotherapy reduces the consumption of face-to-face resources and improves clinical recovery, compared to conventional home exercise program prescribed on paper.
