Interventio / Hoito
Yksityiskohtainen kuvaus
The study is designed prospectively and will be conducted between August 22, 2025, and June 22, 2026. Patients who are regularly followed in the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation rheumatology outpatient clinic of Haydarpasa Numune Training and Research Hospital and who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be included. Demographic data such as age, height, weight, waist circumference, and diet type of participants will be recorded. At baseline, the Central Sensitization Scale, Rheumatoid Arthritis Quality of Life Scale, RA Articular Damage Score, Health Assessment Questionnaire, and Duruöz Hand Index questionnaires will be administered. DAS28 and ACR50 responses will be noted. Sedimentation and CRP values from routine follow-up files, as well as hand dynamometry and pinchmeter (lateral, palmar, and fingertip) grip strengths, will be recorded.
The study consists of one group of rheumatoid arthritis patients and two groups of rheumatoid arthritis patients with accompanying central sensitization. Group 1 (Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients) and Group 2 (Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients with Central Sensitization) will be taught determined strengthening and mobility exercises under the supervision of a physiotherapist to ensure correct home application. The investigator will also provide recorded exercise videos and handouts for patients. Group 3 (RA Patients with Central Sensitization) will additionally perform desensitization exercises 7 days a week for 3 months, in addition to the strengthening and mobility exercises. Randomization will be conducted using the sealed envelope method. Patient compliance with the exercise program will be monitored by the investigator via telephone contact on specific days of the week.

Participants will be asked to practice home exercises every day of the week for 12 weeks.
The SARAH exercise program consists of 7 mobility and 4 strengthening exercises.
Progress will be made by increasing the repetitions and duration of the exercises every week.

Ensisijaiset tulostoimenpiteet
Tulosmittaus |
Toimenpiteen kuvaus |
Aikaikkuna |
|---|---|---|
|
VAS
Aikaikkuna: Assessments will be conducted at baseline, at the end of the 3-month exercise program, and at the 6-month follow-up.
|
The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) is used to assess pain intensity.
Scores range from 0 to 10, where 0 represents "no pain" and 10 represents "the worst possible pain."
Lower scores indicate a better clinical outcome.
|
Assessments will be conducted at baseline, at the end of the 3-month exercise program, and at the 6-month follow-up.
|
|
CENTRAL DESENSİTİZATİON SCALE
Aikaikkuna: Assessments will be conducted at baseline, at the end of the 3-month exercise program, and at the 6-month follow-up.
|
Participants were categorized based on their Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI) scores, which range from 0 (no symptoms) to 100 (extreme symptoms).
A clinical threshold was set at 40; participants scoring 40 or higher were identified as meeting the criteria for central sensitization
|
Assessments will be conducted at baseline, at the end of the 3-month exercise program, and at the 6-month follow-up.
|
|
DURUOZ HAND INDEX
Aikaikkuna: Assessments will be conducted at baseline, at the end of the 3-month exercise program, and at the 6-month follow-up.
|
Participants achieved a functional response based on the Duruöz Hand Index (DHI), which ranges from 0 (best outcome) to 90 (worst outcome).
A response was defined as a significant reduction in the total score from baseline, where lower scores indicate improved hand function and independence in daily activities.
|
Assessments will be conducted at baseline, at the end of the 3-month exercise program, and at the 6-month follow-up.
|
|
Dynamometer-measured hand grip strength measurements (kg)
Aikaikkuna: Assessments will be conducted at baseline, at the end of the 3-month exercise program, and at the 6-month follow-up.
|
Hand grip strength was measured using a calibrated dynamometer to assess isometric muscle strength.
Results are reported in kilograms (kg).
On this scale, higher values indicate greater muscle strength and better physical performance (best outcome), while lower values indicate reduced grip strength (worst outcome).
|
Assessments will be conducted at baseline, at the end of the 3-month exercise program, and at the 6-month follow-up.
|
|
Pinchmeter-measured finger strength measurements (kg) (Tip, Lateral, Palmar)
Aikaikkuna: Assessments will be conducted at baseline, at the end of the 3-month exercise program, and at the 6-month follow-up.
|
Finger pinch strength was measured using a calibrated pinchmeter to evaluate fine motor strength in three positions: Tip pinch (thumb to index finger), Lateral pinch (thumb to the radial side of the index finger), and Palmar pinch (thumb to index and middle fingers).
Measurements are recorded in kilograms (kg).
Higher values indicate greater functional strength and better hand performance (best outcome), whereas lower values indicate reduced pinch force (worst outcome).
|
Assessments will be conducted at baseline, at the end of the 3-month exercise program, and at the 6-month follow-up.
