Summary
This study evaluated the effectiveness of two therapeutic approaches-Desensitization Training (DT) and Graded Motor Imagery (GMI)-in reducing wrist pain and improving function in patients with Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD). The sample size was calculated using Epitools for one-way ANOVA comparison with two independent groups. A total of 40 participants were randomly assigned into two groups: the DT group and the GMI group, each consisting of 20 patients. The DT group underwent sessions involving progressive tactile stimulation using different textures and temperatures to reduce hypersensitivity and allodynia.
