PRIMARY
Change From Baseline in Pain Measured by the VAS Scale
-2.00
SECONDARY
Change From Baseline in Biomechanical Function, Measured by the Quick DASH Questionnaire
-10.8

Summary

The main objective of the trial is to assess the clinical changes in terms of physical examination, VAS Scale and the Quick-DASH questionnaire, and the biomechanical parameters in terms of mobility of the TMC joint, the grip strength of the hand and lateral pinch strength in patients with rhizarthrosis after administration of viscosupplementation. The secondary objectives of the trial will be to assess the safety of the treatment with viscosupplementation, and the correlation between the clinical and biomechanical changes at the end of the trial.
