Importance of the Hand
The hand is extremely complex and requires fine balance of all structures to function properly.We are able to manipulate our environment through the use of our handsFinger and hand injuries can be among the most devastating if not well cared for because we use our hands for hundreds of daily activities.

Bones of the Wrist and Hand
Bones of the wrist include: Distal radius, scaphoid, lunate, triquetrum,
pisiform, trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, and hamate
How do you remember the carpal bones? 5 metacarpals14 phalanges

Wrist JointsMade up of two compound joints
Radiocarpal and MidcarpalStability is provided by numerous ligamentsAllows for the following motions:
Flexion Extension Abduction: Radial deviation Adduction: Ulnar deviation

Superficial - extension of transverse carpal ligament and palmaris longus tendon; goes to fingers
Deep - floor from thenar to hypothenar; serves to cushion and protect hand and maintain hand’s concavity
Dorsal fascia Two layers but less dense

Common tissue injuries, conditions
and surgical interventions
![Page 10: Wrist and Hand. Identify key anatomical muscles and structures in the wrist and hand Identify common tissue injuries, conditions and surgical interventions](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc75503460f94abcc23/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Referred PainC6, C7, C8 nerve roots terminate in the hand
Injury or entrapment of these nerves may occur anywhere along their course
Median Nerve- compression at the carpal tunnel
Ulnar nerve- compression in the ulnar tunnel
Where will the patient experience symptoms?
![Page 11: Wrist and Hand. Identify key anatomical muscles and structures in the wrist and hand Identify common tissue injuries, conditions and surgical interventions](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc75503460f94abcc23/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Irritation of the synovial membranes around the tendons in the carpal tunnel This inflammation results in in pressure on the median nerveThe median nerve travels from the forearm into the hand through a 'tunnel' in your wristThe bottom and sides of this tunnel are formed by wrist bones and the top of the tunnel is covered by a strong band of connective tissue or ligament
![Page 12: Wrist and Hand. Identify key anatomical muscles and structures in the wrist and hand Identify common tissue injuries, conditions and surgical interventions](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc75503460f94abcc23/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
This tunnel also contains nine tendons that connect muscles to bones and bend your fingers and thumbThese tendons are covered with a lubricating membrane called synovium which may enlarge and swell under some circumstancesIf the swelling is sufficient it may cause the median nerve to be pressed up against this strong ligament which may result in numbness, tingling in your hand, clumsiness or pain, all classic signs of carpal tunnel syndrome Treatment:
Splinting, ROM/Stretches, modalities, isometrics exercises

Joint HypomobilityCommon causes:
Rheumatoid arthritis Degenerative joint disease Swan-neck deformity Boutonniere deformity

Tendon-GlidingDesigned to maintain or develop free gliding between tendons and bones in the wrist, hand, and fingersAdhesions between various structures can become restrictive or incapacitatingThe most common tendon-gliding exercises are:
Flexor Tendon-Gliding Exercises Extensor Tendon-Gliding Exercises
![Page 19: Wrist and Hand. Identify key anatomical muscles and structures in the wrist and hand Identify common tissue injuries, conditions and surgical interventions](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc75503460f94abcc23/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)
The joint’s synovium becomes inflamed and swollenSwollen tissues stretch supporting structures of the joints such as ligaments and tendons. As the support structures stretch out, the joints become deformed and unstable.
Treatment: Splinting, ROM, stabilization and modalities
![Page 20: Wrist and Hand. Identify key anatomical muscles and structures in the wrist and hand Identify common tissue injuries, conditions and surgical interventions](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc75503460f94abcc23/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Swan-Neck DeformityLaxity of the PIP joint
Hyperextension of the PIP and flexion of the DIP joints
Treatment: Splinting/ ROM/Stretch, strengthening and
modalities
![Page 21: Wrist and Hand. Identify key anatomical muscles and structures in the wrist and hand Identify common tissue injuries, conditions and surgical interventions](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc75503460f94abcc23/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Boutonnière DeformityAn injury to the tendons in the fingers that usually prevents the finger from fully extendingThe result is that the PIP of the injured finger is in a flexed position, while the DIP remains in a hyperextended positionThis is the characteristic shape of a boutonnière deformity
Treatment: Splinting/ ROM/Stretch, strengthening and
modalities

Goals of surgery: Relief of pain Restoration of normal or sufficient function of
the wrist and hand Correction of instability or deformity Restoration of ROM Improved strength of the wrist and fingers
Necessary for grasping and pinching

Trigger FingerCan occur in one or more fingers, and can occur at different times in different locations.
Trigger finger results from a discrepancy between the size of the tendon and the entrance to the tendon sheath. This discrepancy can be the result of localized inflammation or a nodular swelling on the tendon itself.
When the size discrepancy between the tendon and the tendon sheath reaches a critical point, the tendon will experience resistance from the tendon sheath. This is experienced as a snapping of the trigger finger when relaxing a fist.
Treatment: ROM/Stretches, Isometrics and modalities.

Dupuytren's Contracture
An abnormal thickening of tough tissue (fibrous layer) underneath the skin of the palm and fingersMay cause the fingers to flex Dupuytren's contracture is more common in men than in women
Treatment: Splinting/ ROM/Stretch, strengthening and
modalities.

Dupuytren's Contracture
![Page 30: Wrist and Hand. Identify key anatomical muscles and structures in the wrist and hand Identify common tissue injuries, conditions and surgical interventions](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc75503460f94abcc23/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
FracturesImmobilized so ligaments of the joints are placed on stretch to reduce risk of contracture.Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) may be used with unstable fractures.Immobilization is used for only as many joints as necessary to stabilize fracture.Wrist fractures most commonly affect the hamate or pisiform.
![Page 31: Wrist and Hand. Identify key anatomical muscles and structures in the wrist and hand Identify common tissue injuries, conditions and surgical interventions](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc75503460f94abcc23/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Scaphoid FractureA fall on an outstretched arm often results in a fracture of the scaphoid bone in the wrist.This small bone is one of 8 carpal bones in the wrist.The scaphoid sits below the thumb, and is shaped like a kidney bean.This complex bone has a unique and limited blood supply that can be easily disrupted by a fracture.
![Page 32: Wrist and Hand. Identify key anatomical muscles and structures in the wrist and hand Identify common tissue injuries, conditions and surgical interventions](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649dc75503460f94abcc23/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Scaphoid FractureDue to poor blood supply, a fracture in the center of the bone can actually sever blood flow to the proximal portion of the bone. For this reason, scaphoid fractures need immediate diagnosis and treatment. Scaphoid fractures may heal very slowly or may not heal at all.
Treatment: Splinting, Isometrics and modalities

Common Interventions for the Wrist and Hand
Techniques for Musculotendinous Mobility Tendon-gliding and tendon-blocking exercises Scar tissue mobilization for tendon adhesions Palmar fascia release

Flexibility and Stretching Guidelines
Apply joint mobilization before stretchingApply force precisely and in sequence from most distal to most proximal joint.When only one joint is stretched, others must be stabilized.Stretch one finger at a time.Wrist stretches begin with fingers and move to wrist.
