Joint Injuries of the Fingers and Thumb
Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1985Prompt recognition of the magnitude of articular damage is essential for optimal management of digital joint injuries. Basic to this concept is the need to differentiate injuries that can be successfully treated by closed techniques from those that require surgery.

Design of joint locks for underactuated fingers
2012 4th IEEE RAS & EMBS International Conference on Biomedical Robotics and Biomechatronics (BioRob), 2012Modern multifunctional hand prostheses have many degrees of freedom, but strong limitations on weight and size. The actuators commonly used in these systems are relatively large and heavy, so their number should be kept as low as possible. This is often accomplished by underactuation, which causes a natural motion of the fingers when grasping an object

1979
The proximal interphalangeal and metacarpo-phalangeal joints of the index fingers of four normal healthy female subjects were studied, using a three-dimensional biomechanical analysis. The activities investigated included the application of an isometric twisting moment on a fixture representing a water tap and pinching a 45 mm cylinder between the ...

Palmar Dislocation of the Metacarpophalangeal Joint of the Finger
Journal of Hand Surgery, 2004We report a case of palmar dislocation of a finger metacarpophalangeal joint. Disruption of all the supporting structures of this joint and rupture of the flexor tendon sheath caused marked instability. Treatment was by open reduction and repair of the collateral ligaments.

The Nicolle Finger Joint Prosthesis: A Reappraisal
Journal of Hand Surgery, 1991The Nicolle prosthesis was used to replace 101 metacarpophalangeal joints in patients with rheumatoid arthritis over a ten-year period. Mean active flexion achieved was 30°. Mean ulnar deviation was 27°.4% of joints had to be removed after a mean interval of 42 months, for infection. None of the implants had fractured.

Finger Joint Contusion and the Pain Mechanisms behind the Finger Joint Contusion
Lecture Notes in Education Psychology and Public MediaFinger joint contusion is an unrecognized but common blunt traumatic injury, and it is of great frequency in everyday injuries and professional sports, such as basketball and volleyball. Being a seemingly small musculoskeletal trauma, its slow or even mal-managed treatment tends to result in chronic pain, joint stiffening and irreversible hand ...
