dc.description.abstract | Flexion contracture of the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIPJ) is one of the most frequent complications in finger trauma. Orthoses are the most widely used method to optimize total end-range time (TERT). No previous studies showed that an elastic tension orthosis could be applied for longer than 12 h. We aimed to demonstrate that the elastic-tension digital neoprene orthosis (ETDNO) can achieve higher TERT and therefore better range of motion than other elastic-tension orthoses (ETO) described in the literature. A prospective study of treatment of PIPJ flexion contracture included 10 PIP joints in 8 patients who met the selection criteria. They were instructed to use the ETDNO for around 23 h per day as far as possible, during a period of 3 weeks. Patients reported a mean TERT of 20.6 h a day. PIPJ contracture improved by a mean Torque Range of Motion (TROM) of 23.5° at 500 g and 22.9° at 800 g of passive extension force during the 3-week treatment. Based on the results of this study, the ETDNO appears to offer a highly effective approach for improving PIPJ flexion contracture, increasing range of motion in extension. ETDNO's efficacy probably lies in the significantly improved comfort and low-profile design, enabling excellent compliance and thus optimizing TERT. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III | - |
