Brief Summary:
This clinical trial investigates the effects of natural healing factors (mineral water and mud procedures) in combination with regular rehabilitation of patients with degenerative small joint disease. The study aims to assess the impact on functional status, quality of life, and socio-economic factors, including the reduction of temporary incapacity for work and disability and the improvement of patient participation. Participants will undergo a regular rehabilitation program incorporating these natural healing factors, measuring outcomes through various health metrics.
Detailed Description:
This interventional clinical trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy of incorporating natural healing factors into the standard rehabilitation regimen for patients suffering from degenerative small joint disease. The study will involve a well-defined cohort of participants diagnosed with this condition, randomly assigned to either the experimental group, which will receive the combination of mineral water and mud procedures with a regular rehabilitation program, or the control group, which will receive the standard regular rehabilitation.
The primary objective is to determine patients' functional status and quality of life changes, measured through validated health questionnaires and functional tests specific to small joints. Secondary objectives include analysing the socio-economic impact, reducing temporary incapacity for work and disability rates and improving patient participation in daily activities and employment.
The data collection process will be rigorous, involving a comprehensive mix of qualitative and quantitative methods. Participants will be required to complete health surveys and functional status tests and provide socioeconomic data at multiple points throughout the study. The rehabilitation program will include physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and the application of natural healing factors such as balneotherapy and peloid therapy.
