Finger Joint Biomechanics

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 ...

Fractures of the proximal interphalangeal joints of the fingers

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 2009
Fractures of the proximal interphalangeal joint include a wide spectrum of injuries, from stable avulsion fractures to complex fracture-dislocations. Stability of the joint is paramount in determining the appropriate treatment, which should aim to facilitate early mobilisation and restoration of function.

Finger Proximal Interphalangeal Joint Dislocation

Advanced Emergency Nursing Journal, 2015
Finger dislocations are common injuries that are often managed by emergency nurse practitioners. A systematic physical examination following these injuries is imperative to avoid complications. Radiographic views, including the anteroposterior, lateral, and oblique views, are imperative to evaluate these finger dislocations. A dorsal dislocation of the

Fracture–Dislocation About the Finger Joints

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2009
Fracture-dislocations in the small joints of the fingers are challenging injuries. The surgeon must choose an appropriate treatment based on fracture pattern, joint stability, and injury chronicity. Fracture-dislocations of the proximal interphalangeal joint are notoriously unforgiving, with potential long-term sequelae of residual pain and stiffness ...

Tendon and pulleys at the metacarpophalangeal joint of a finger

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1975
In fresh frozen traumatically amputated forearms with a constant tension of one kilogram on the flexor profundus tendon and the interphalangeal joints fixed in full extension by a Kirschner wire, the excursion of the tendon at the metacarpophalangeal joint and the force at the finger tip were correlated with different angles of flexion of the joint ...

A transducer for the measurement of finger joint moments

IEEE Transactions on Rehabilitation Engineering, 1998
A device capable of simultaneously measuring the isometric moments generated about the metacarpophalangeal (MP), proximal interphalangeal (PIP), and distal interphalangeal (DIP) joints of all four fingers has been developed. The design utilizes a four-bar linkage to transmit moments, but not forces, to the device. This linkage allows the same device to

Dislocation of carpometacarpal joint of the little finger

The Journal of Hand Surgery: Journal of the British Society for Surgery of the Hand, 1987
A case is reported of late ulna-volar carpometacarpal dislocation of the left little finger, treated by open reduction and internal fixation.
