“…De Quervain's tenosynovitis is known as entrapment tendinitis of the tendons of abductor muscles of thumb at the styloid process of the radius which induces pain on movement. Repeated http://jn.wum.edu.pk movements of thumb and wrist joint are responsible for the pain (Tamura, Shikino, Uchida, & Ikusaka, 2020). Smartphone overuse has become an increasing cause of De Quervain's tenosynovitis among the youth, who make up a substantial number of smart phone users, as it includes repeated thumb movements (Ahmed, Iftikhar, Javed, Warda, & Samad, 2019).…”

Background: De Quervain tenosynovitis is an inflammatory condition of wrist joint resulting in pain swelling and tenderness on the side of thumb. Repeated thumb movements and overuse of wrist joint contribute to the severity of symptoms. Objectives: To measure the prevalence of De Quervain’s tenosynovitis in cell phone gamers and its relationship to the frequency of cell phone usage/number of hours among gamers. Methods: A cross sectional survey was conducted using self-made questionnaire and a valid and reliable Finkelstein’s test was used. The study population was young students of Multan and the data of 300 students was taken. The data was collected from both male and female students using purposive sampling technique. Results: There were 13% gamers having De Quervain’s tenosynovitis. 31% were females and 69% were male students. De Quervain’s tenosynovitis was associated with game playing hours as the statistical analysis showed strong association between tenosynovitis and game playing hours having P-value=0.000. Moreover 87 students felt stressed during playing games and students reported that they felt difficulty during gripping of the objects, twisting the keys and typing on keyboard. Conclusion: Study concluded that De Quervain’s tenosynovitis is prevalent among phone gamers in both male and female and game playing hours was associated with De Quervain’s tenosynovitis. Increase in game playing ours increased the incidence of DQT.

Introduction Non-traumatic wrist disorders (NTWD) are commonly encountered yet sparse resources exist to aid management. This study aimed to produce a literature map regarding diagnosis, management, pathways of care and outcome measures for NTWDs in the United Kingdom. Methods An interdisciplinary team of clinicians and academic researchers used Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines and the PRISMA ScR checklist in this scoping review. A mixed stakeholder group of patients and healthcare professionals identified 16 questions of importance to which the literature was mapped. An a-priori search strategy of both published and non-published material from five electronic databases and grey literature resources identified records. Two reviewers independently screened records for inclusion using explicit eligibility criteria with oversight from a third. Data extraction through narrative synthesis, charting and summary was performed independently by two reviewers. Results Of 185 studies meeting eligibility criteria, diagnoses of wrist pain, De Quervain’s syndrome and ulna-sided pain were encountered most frequently, with uncontrolled non-randomised trial or cohort study being the most frequently used methodology. Diagnostic methods used included subjective questioning, self-reported pain, palpation and special tests. Best practice guidelines were found from three sources for two NTWD conditions. Seventeen types of conservative management, and 20 different patient-reported outcome measures were suggested for NTWD. Conclusion Substantial gaps in evidence exist in all parts of the patient journey for NTWD when mapped against an analytic framework (AF). Opportunities exist for future rigorous primary studies to address these gaps and the preliminary concerns about the quality of the literature regarding NTWD.
