the best compression gloves for Rheumatoid arthritis
There are a few factors kept in mind by the designers and manufacturers when designing and manufacturing compression gloves for patients with rheumatoid arthritis. A peer-reviewed article titled “The effects of arthritis gloves on people with Rheumatoid Arthritis or Inflammatory Arthritis with hand pain: a study protocol for a multi-centre randomised controlled trial (the A-GLOVES trial)” handles in depth what the goal hoped of special arthritis glove in pain management for the patients with rheumatoid arthritis or undifferentiated inflammatory arthritis(Prior et al., 2017). The article indicates that patients experience different outcomes wearing gloves throughout the day and those experiences are different from one patient to another.
Therefore, according to the above (the A-GLOVES trial) study, patients should choose compression gloves according to their situation and level of sickness. in another word, not every patient has the same needs nor would have the same results as others. The only measure here for the patients is to know what is best for them to manage their pain. So, testing the product and checking whether this product provides pain ease or pain relief is the ultimate goal.
The following are the main important elements to look over when testing the arthritis gloves:
- Fabric: the gloves are mainly made of nylon and elastane such as lycra to accommodate easy hand movement. It is not a problem at all to test some of the other products in the market which are made of different fabrics as long as they provide the patient with pain control and flexibility.
- Fit: The gloves should fit snugly a provide moderate pressure to remove stiffness in hands yet provide flexibility to do everyday tasks.
- Warmth: the gloves should provide warmth to the hands for flexibility.
- pressure: the arthritis gloves should apply moderate pressure to relieve hand stiffness and pain and improve the patient’s hand function.
