Exercises and mirror therapy after hand tendon repair
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests a therapy program that combines task-oriented exercises with mirror therapy (using a mirror to help trick the brain) after surgery to repair a hand tendon. It aims to help improve hand movement and function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether using virtual reality along with hand exercises can help you recover better after surgery to repair the tendons that bend your fingers. It may make your rehabilitation more engaging and effective.
This study compares two different positions for a hand splint after flexor tendon surgery. It aims to find which wrist position helps you heal better and move your finger sooner.
This trial compares different rehabilitation programs after surgery for a cut thumb tendon (the one that bends your thumb). It aims to find which therapy approach helps patients recover better.
This trial tests a therapy using special energy (called Transfer Energy Capacitive and Resistive) to reduce pain and improve finger movement after flexor tendon repair surgery. If it works, it could help you recover better after your surgery.
This study tests an exercise program focused on daily activities to improve hand function after surgery for a flexor tendon injury in the hand. It may help you regain movement and use your hand better in everyday tasks.
This study tests a fun, hand-tracking virtual reality system (like a game) to help people recover hand movement after flexor tendon surgery. If you are at least 5 weeks past surgery, you might be able to join and potentially improve your finger bending and strength.
