研究概览
简要总结
This study is to determine function following simulated thumb metacarpophalangeal (MP) and thumb interphalangeal (IP) joint fusion. The investigators want to determine the functional limitation created by MP and IP joint fusion. 20-30 volunteers will be fitted for custom molded orthoplast splints immobilizing either the MP or IP joint. The volunteers will then be taken through multiple tests including lateral pinch strength, tip pinch, grip strength, grooved pegboard test time, and Jebson Taylor test. Each patient will be tested without a splint, with their MP joint immobilized and with their IP joint immobilized. The results of this study can be used for patient education before surgery in order to help them make informed decisions as well as manage expectations. It can also serve as a decision aid in pinch restoration in the context of ulnar nerve palsy.
