The Effect of Priming of Questionnaire Content on Grip Strength in Patients With Hand and Upper Extremity Illness
Objectives:
To determine the association between priming and measurements of hand function such as grip strength
Primary null hypothesis:
There is no difference in grip strength (best of three attempts) as a percent of the opposite hand between patients that complete the standard Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) compared to patients that complete the positively adjusted PCS.
Secondary null hypotheses:
There is no difference in grip strength (last of three attempts) as a percent of the opposite hand between patients that complete the standard PCS compared to patients that complete the positively adjusted PCS.
There is no difference in grip strength (best of three attempts) before and after completing the questionnaires between patients that complete the standard PCS compared to patients that complete the positively adjusted PCS.

Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS)
大体时间:enrollment
|
The pain catastrophizing scale is a 13-item scale to measure catastrophic thinking.
The scale is from 0-4 and scores range from 0-52, a lower score indicates less catastrophic thinking about pain.

|
Positive Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS)
大体时间:enrollment
|
The positive pain catastrophizing scale (PCS) is a positively-phrased 13-item scale to measure catastrophic thinking.
The scale is from 0-4 and scores range from 0-52, a higher score indicates less catastrophic thinking about pain.

Difference in Grip Strength Measured With Dynamometer
大体时间:Day 1
|
Difference in Grip strength of the non-affected hand after completing intervention.
Each participant completed the grip strength measurement 3 times on the non-affected hand at enrollment (day 1).
The results reported represent an increase or decrease in mean grip strength and maximum grip strength after completing the intervention.

Difference in Grip Strength Measured With Dynamometer
大体时间:Day 1
|
Difference in Grip strength of the injured hand after completing intervention.
Each participant completed the grip strength measurement 3 times on the injured hand at enrollment (day 1).
The results reported represent an increase or decrease in mean grip strength and maximum grip strength after completing the intervention.

Difference in Grip Strength Measured With Dynamometer
大体时间:Day 1
|
Difference in Grip strength of both hands after completing intervention.
Each participant completed the grip strength measurement 3 times with both hands at enrollment (day 1).
The results reported represent an increase or decrease in mean grip strength and maximum grip strength after completing the intervention.
