Cross-sectorial Management Program for People Living with Hand Osteoarthritis: a Randomised Controlled Pilot and Feasibility Study
Sponsor: Parker Research Institute
Summary
To investigate the research design (pilot-RCT) and feasibility of the HANDY program for people with hand osteoarthritis (version 2.0). In collaboration with two municipalities (Lyngby-Taarbæk and Ballerup), the research design is tested in a pilot-RCT before planning a full-scale RCT study. The entire HANDY program is described in a manual, which has been adjusted to version 2.0 based on a previous feasibility study. The focus of the study will be on procedures related to recruitment and retention, the study's acceptance in practice, and the appropriateness of assessment tools in connection with the occupational therapy group intervention. The feasibility and acceptance of the HANDY program version 2.0 are also examined in this study.

HANDY occupational therapy intervention
The HANDY occupational therapy intervention is occupation-centred and follows the Occupational Therapy Intervention Process Model (OTIPM), specifying the steps of a problem-solving process focused on enabling performance of tasks in everyday life. The HANDY occupational therapy intervention consists of six mandatory sessions of 120 minutes representing a combination of individual and group sessions. Each group includes a maximum of eight participants with hand osteoarthritis, facilitated by two OTs.
