DATA FORM for FIRST ASSESSMENT of DUPUYTREN DISEASE
Dupuytren - Basic Data Set - Form
This form has been created about 20 years ago and then further developed and used for hundreds of patients over the past two decades.
It allows to structure the most relevant information and data of the patients disease record and helps to judge whether the use of radiotherapy might be a possible treatment for any early stage disease
Stage N = disease with single or multiple nodules and / or cords WITHOUT flexion deformity Stage N / I = disease with single or multiple nodules and / or cords WITH total extension deficit up to 10° Stage I = disease with nodules and/or cords WITH total extension deficit up to 45° (RT indication is limited to maximum 30° total extension deficit !)
Primary disease = without any previous invasive / surgical treatment Secondary disease = relapse / progression after previous invasive / surgical treatment(s)
Besides the completion of the data of this form high-resolution photographic documentation of both hand palms is essential to compare and evaluate the findings.
Additional personal notes and comments about observed clinical signs and symptoms are also very valuable basic data.
The form covers the following aspects:
- Family history - Possible associated disorders - Possible risk factors - Description of possible symptoms - Description of possible disease development - Description of possible treatments - Description of possible locations of nodules & cords - Description of possible functional changes Comments on possible improvements of this form are very welcome and will be commented by myself.
