Effect of Transfer Energy Capacitive and Resistive Therapy on Pain and Range of Motion After Flexor Tendon Repair

Lacking satisfactory healing of intrasynovial tendons, such as the flexor tendons of the hand, is particularly challenging due to the formation of fibrous adhesions between the tendon, sheath and surrounding tissues which can further limit mobility. Transfer Energy Capacitive and Resistive therapy (TECAR) enhances the body's natural ability to repair tissues and reduce pain by improving blood flow and promoting additional benefits, such as cell proliferation. This process, primarily linked to the flow of current, supports cell growth and plays a significant role in the healing process. There is a lack in quantitative knowledge and information in the published studies about the benefits of TEcar therapy on the improvement of hand function after long flexor tendon repair . So, this study is designed to outline the therapeutic impact of TEcar therapy on pain and ROM after hand flexor tendon repair.
