What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. PRWHE (Patient rated Wrist and Hand Evaluation score)

    PRWHE is a wrist specific patient assessed questionnaire, measuring pain, wrist specific function and general function

    Time frame: 24 months postop

Secondary outcomes

  1. Wrist movement

    Overall degree of flexion, extension, radial and ulnar deviation

    Time frame: 24 months postop

  2. Grip Strength

    Time frame: 24 months postop

  3. Pain in affected wrist

    Visual analogue scale

    Time frame: 24 months postop

  4. Quick-DASH

    "Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand" questionnaire

    Time frame: 24 months postop

  5. intraoperative complications

    Time frame: intraoperative

  6. Postoperative complications

    Time frame: 24 months postop

  7. Implant loosening

    Implant loosening seen on x-ray

    Time frame: 24 months postop

  8. Implant migration

    Implant migration seen on model-based roentgen stereophotogrammetric analysis (RSA), as a possible precursor of later implant loosening

    Time frame: 24 months postop

  9. Periprosthetic bone mineral density

    BMD measured with DEXA (dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry)

    Time frame: 24 months postop
