Action note: In: Summary: ABSTRACT. Background: De Quervain's tenosynovitis is the thickening of the first dorsal compartment that is caused by overuse or repetitive wrist movements. Eccentric exercises have been reported to show positive results in few case studies. Objectives/purposes: The study aims to discover other adjunct physical therapy approaches that could hasten the recovery of patients with DQT and lessen their pain and disability for a longer duration. Methodology: The study was conducted at a PT clinic in Intramuros, Manila. Inclusion criteria were: participants aged 18-60 years old, without other hand or upper extremity injury besides DQT, and had a score of <90 on the MHQ. Two subjects were gathered, one received conventional treatment alone and the other conventional treatment with eccentric exercises. S1 was able to accomplish 12 treatment sessions, three times a week for four weeks, while S2 was only able to accomplish seven treatment sessions within four weeks. Results: Conventional treatment with eccentric exercises provided a clinically significant change based on the MCID values in an individual's pain and disability after four weeks. However, conventional treatment alone did not produce a clinically significant change in the MHQ score indicating no significant improvement in pain and disability after four weeks. Discussion: Conventional treatment with eccentric exercises could improve hand functions of patients with DQT. However, the study lacked sample size. Thus data gathered did not produce statistically significant results. Conclusion: Eccentric exercises can be used as an adjunct to conventional treatment for decreasing pain and disability in individuals with DQT. Other editions:
