Q

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

A
  • entrapment of median nerve in carpal tunnel
  • sensory impairments = pain, numbness, tingling
  • motor impairments = weakness and atrophy of thenar muscles
  • conservative treatment = reduce inflammation, limit aggravating activities, wrist brace, postural correction, nerve gliding
  • surgical treatment = surgical release of transverse carpal ligament, scar management, ROM, strengthening

Q

Median Nerve Palsy

A
  • impaired sensation along palmar aspect of radial hand
  • loss of anterior forearm (proximal), thenar muscles, and lateral lumbricals (distal)
  • ape hand = atrophy of thenar muscles, thumb rests in adduction
  • hand of benediction (bishop’s hand) = extension of digits 1-3 when actively making a fist
17
Q

Radial Nerve Palsy

A
  • impaired sensation along dorsal aspect of thumb and radial hand
  • loss of muscles in posterior arm and forearm
  • decreased wrist strength
  • wrist drop = wrist rests in flexion, inability to extend wrist and fingers
  • treatment = orthosis, ROM, stretching, muscular strengthening, wait for nerve recovery
18
Q

Ulnar Nerve Palsy

A
  • impaired sensation along palmar aspect of digit 5 and ulnar half of digit 4
  • loss of FCU and medial FDP (proximal), intrinsics, adductor pollicis, hypothenar muscles, and medial lumbricals (distal)
  • claw hand = MCP joints are hyperextended and IP joints are flexed
19
Q

DeQuervain’s Syndrome

A
  • overuse injury … repeated lifting or use of thumb
  • inflammation of 1st dorsal compartment (APL, EPB)
  • wrist pain preventing thumb flexion, extension, abduction
  • conservative treatment = thumb spica orthosis, cortisone injection, rest
  • surgical treatment = surgical release of extensor retinaculum, active ROM for wrist and thumb, scar management, nerve gliding
20
Q

Extensor Hood

A
  • composed of tendons and ligaments on dorsal digit
  • extends IP joints, counterbalances flexor forces of extrinsic muscles, facilitates coordinated finger flexion
  • sagittal band, central tendon, lateral band, oblique retinacular ligament, terminal tendon
21
Q

Swan Neck Deformity

A
  • damage to terminal tendon, direct blow to DIP while digit is extended, progressive weakening of DIP
  • PIP joint hyperextension and DIP joint flexion
22
Q

Boutonniere Deformity

A
  • due to direct injury to central slip, volar PIP joint dislocation, or secondary to RA
  • PIP joint flexion and DIP joint hyperextension
23
Q

Pulleys

A
  • 5 annular (transverse), 4 cruciate (oblique)
  • contain FDS and FDP tendons
  • promotes tendon gliding, prevent bowstringing, increase mechanical advantage for finger flexion
  • most important = A2, A4
24
Q

Trigger Finger

A
  • stenosing tenosynovitis
  • fibrosis and tightening of flexor tendon sheath typically due to repetitive gripping activities
  • often at MCP joint (A1)
  • conservative treatment = orthosis, reduce gripping activities
  • surgical treatment = surgical release of affected pulley, scar massage, increase ROM, improve grip strength
