Stronger core, better hand recovery? new study investigates

NCT ID NCT07026747

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether core stabilization exercises can improve hand function and emotional health in men recovering from traumatic hand injuries. Fifty-one men aged 20-50 will be split into three groups: standard hand rehab alone, standard rehab plus supervised core exercises, or standard rehab plus home-based core exercises. The goal is to see if strengthening the core helps the hand heal better and reduces feelings of anxiety or depression.

Active substance

core stabilization exercises

What this could lead to

If it works, this could show that adding core exercises to standard hand rehab improves both physical recovery and emotional well-being after a hand injury.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage study with only 51 men, so results may not apply to everyone. The added benefit of core exercises over standard rehab alone is uncertain.
