NCT ID NCT06399614

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

Summary

This study looks at whether occupational therapy (OT) helps adults with hand injuries recover better than standard care. About 150 participants from four Irish hospitals will be tracked for six months. One site offers usual care without OT, while the others provide OT-led hand therapy. The goal is to see if OT improves hand function and quality of life.
