SKIPA: Clinical Routine in Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Transversal recording and analysis of investigations performed in patients referred for suspected thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS)
| Condition or Disease | Intervention/Treatment | Phase |
|---|---|---|
|
Detailed Description
Patients will have recording on a database of all investigations that were eventually performed for the diagnosis or follow up of their disease, among which:
-
Characteristics (Age, Gender height, weight, ongoing treatment ,
-
professional activity, sports activity,
-
Symptoms.
-
Forearm and finger photoplethysmography (PPG) during provocative maneuvers of the upper limb
-
Transcutaneous oxymetry (Tcpo2) recording
-
Standard questionnaires (MASC, DASH, FS36)
-
Doppler and ultrasound during provocative maneuvers of the upper limb
-
Angiography during provocative maneuvers of the upper limb
-
Electromyogram
-
Standard X-ray
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Patients with Thoracic outlet syndrome Patients referred to the University Hospital of Angers for the diagnostis or follow-up of thoracic outlet syndrome |
Diagnostic Test: Ultrasound
Echodoppler imaging of upper limbs performed by trained operators at rest and during provocative maneuvers for TOS diagnosis.
Diagnostic Test: angiography
Angiography (arterial and/or venous) of upper limbs performed by trained operators at rest and during provocative maneuvers such for TOS diagnosis.
Diagnostic Test: questionnaires
Use of standard questionnaires (MASC, DASH, SF36) for the evaluation of upper limb symptoms self-completed by the patients at admission.
Diagnostic Test: Transcutaneous oximetry
Mesurement of transcutaneuos oxygen pressure on both forearms performed at rest and during provocative maneuversfor TOS diagnosis.
Diagnostic Test: plethysmography
Photoplethysmography of the forearms or fingers performed at rest and during provocative maneuvers for TOS diagnosis
Diagnostic Test: Electromyogram
Electromyography of the upper limbs with encoding of the physician for the presence or abnsence of signs of plexis compression (impairment of the response on C8 T1 erea
Diagnostic Test: Standard X-Ray
Standard X-Ray performed for the research of apophysomegaly or additionnal cervical rib.
