Switzerland14 participantsStarted 2023-06-21

Plain-language summary

The study aims to determine whether CMC I arthroplasty using a Touch® implant results in higher patient satisfaction compared to RSI arthroplasty in the medium-term in patients with primary thumb osteoarthritis. Additionally, the study compares the patients' clinical and self-reported outcomes between the Touch® implant and the RSI arthroplasty. Therefore, patients with a Touch® implant in one thumb and an RSI arthroplasty in the other thumb will be recruited.
