Silicone and Pyrocarbon Artificial Finger Joints [PDF]
Applied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2021 Artificial finger joint design has been developed through different stages through the past. PIP (proximal interphalangeal) and MCP (metacarpophalangeal) artificial finger joints have come to replace the amputation and arthrodesis options; although, these artificial joints are still facing challenges related to reactive tissues, reduced range of motion,
