Summary

Objective: To establish the effectiveness of a proprioceptive training program as a complementary therapy for a traditional protocol in position control, pain intensity, upper limb function and occupation performance for patients with thumb CMC joint OA.

Methods: Standard conservative thumb CMC joint OA treatments were received for both the control (n=26) and experimental groups (n=26) for a period of 12 weeks. The experimental group received a proprioceptive training program during the same intervention period, which was conducted twice weekly (24 sessions). The severity of pain with activity was measured according to the visual analog scale (VAS). QuickDASH questionnaire was used to measure upper extremity function. Patient's occupational performance was measured with the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) and proprioception was assessed using Joint position sense (JPS) testing.
