To What Degree Do Pain-coping Strategies Affect Joint Stiffness and Functional Outcomes in Patients with Hand Fractures?

Abstract: Background Patients with hand fractures often have pain, swelling, and stiffness in the joints of the hand, which may lead them to protect their hands, resulting in more stiffness and in delayed recovery. However, the effects of paincoping strategies and catastrophization (the tendency to expect the worst to occur when pain is present, an approach that can be thought of as the opposite of ''coping'') on functional recovery after hand fractures have not been investigated in depth. Questions/purposes Are preoper… Show more

“…Nevertheless, this belief may lead to misconceptions and give incorrect information if both instruments are related to similar nonbiological factors. Recently, Roh et al [ 36 ] found that poor pain-coping strategies were associated with decreased grip strength and decreased ROM at 3 months after hand fractures. To date, with the exception of a study by Roh et al [ 35 ], there is no research, to our knowledge, addressing this question in patients with shoulder problems.…”
