The Wrist Joint

2012
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most commonly diagnosed and treated entrapment neuropathy. The syndrome is characterized by pain, paresthesia, and weakness in the median nerve distribution of the hand. Surgical and nonsurgical treatments exist that can produce excellent outcomes for patients.

Radial artery cannulation in intensive care unit patients: Does distance from wrist joint increase catheter durability and functionality?

Journal of Vascular Access, 2020
Introduction: Radial artery cannulation (RAC) is a common procedure in Intensive Care Units (ICU); radial catheters for ICU patients require increased durability to collect blood samples and to guarantee continuous hemodynamic monitoring.

Wrist joint motion simulator

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 1996
AbstractA computer controlled wrist joint motion simulator has been developed that actively moves forearms from cadavers through cyclic planar flexion‐extension motions, planar radial‐ulnar deviation motions, and combined motions such as circumduction. Hybrid position‐force feedback control algorithms are used to determine the wrist flexor and extensor

Comparison of the effects of short-duration wrist joint splinting combined with physical therapy and physical therapy alone on the management of patients with lateral epicondylitis: a randomized clinical trial.

European Journal of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine, 2019
BACKGROUND Lateral epicondylitis (i.e., tennis elbow) is a condition caused by overuse of the arm, which can result in elbow pain. Recent evidence has shown wrist joint splinting as an effective intervention for people with lateral epicondylitis.
