Degenerative changes of the finger joints often lead to various surgical treatments such as arthrodesis or artificial joint replacement. There are a lot of surgical approaches for surgeons to choose f...
The effect of metacarpophalangeal joint position and finger joint movement speed on lumbrical muscle activity remains unproven and was examined in this study....
Twenty-four healthy adults performed flexion-extension movements of the index finger in different metacarpophalangeal joint positions (extension or flexion) and movement speeds (60, 120, 240, and 360 ...
The metacarpophalangeal joint positions affected only lumbrical muscle activity, which was greater during extension. Further, finger movement speed affected the lumbrical and extensor digitorum muscle...
The present study suggests that position and movement speed can influence the lumbrical muscle activity during metacarpophalangeal joint extension. These findings may help expound lumbrical function a...
The recording of hand kinematics during product manipulation is challenging, and certain degrees of freedom such as distal interphalangeal (DIP) joints are difficult to record owing to limitations of ...
In this study, the surface parameters wettability, roughness, and adhesive penetration, which are important for wood bonding, were investigated and evaluated utilizing non-destructive methods after di...
Distal interphalangeal joint arthrodesis is a frequent surgical operation performed to treat severe arthritis. Nevertheless, the angle selected when fusing the joint is arbitrarily chosen without any ...
The purpose of this study was to analyse the 1-year outcomes after combining a surface replacing proximal interphalangeal joint arthroplasty and a distal interphalangeal screw arthrodesis and to compa...
Total finger joint reconstruction is challenging. Vascularized toe joint transfer is currently used for reconstruction, but it is difficult to perform, fails to achieve maximal joint flexibility, and ...
The quantitative measurement of finger-joint range of motion plays an important role in assessing the level of hand disability and intervening in the treatment of patients. An industrial monocular-vis...
Due to the functional coupling of adjacent finger joints and the quadriga effect, arthrodesis of the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIPJ) can be assumed to lead to a different grip pattern resulting ...
Ten patients with isolated arthrodesis of the PIPJ due to posttraumatic osteoarthritis (4×PIPJ II, 4×PIPJ III, 2×PIPJ IV) were assessed 59 (17-121) months postoperatively on average. The angle of arth...
Average total grip force of the affected hand compared to the uninjured opposite side was 74% (38-136%) for the small cylinder, 104% (68-180%) for the mid-sized cylinder and 110% (69%-240%) for the la...
Arthrodesis of the PIPJ almost always led to force reduction in the middle and distal phalanx of the affected finger. However, the total grip force of the hand was compensated by a higher force of the...
This study aims at qualitatively and quantitatively evaluating the effects of simulated index finger proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint fusion angles on hand kinematic function and performance. Alth...
