36
Q
  1. Your patient returns to the clinic complaining of pain in their 4th finger. Upon assessment, you determine they have a boutonniere deformity. Which of the following would be the most effective treatment?

a. Splint PIP joint in full flexion and DIP joint in full flexion.

b. Splint PIP joint in full extension.

c. Splint PIP joint in full flexion.

d. Splint PIP joint in full extension and DIP joint in full extension.

A

B

In a boutonniere deformity, the PIP is in flexion and the DIP is in extension. This is due to the rupture of the central band (central slip) of the extensor hood.

37
Q

If the goal of treatment is to decrease drifting of the fingers, what would be the most effective treatment technique?

a Finger isometrics into radial deviation.

b. Finger isometrics into ulnar deviation.

c. Gentle stretching of the collateral ligaments at the MCP joint.

d. Grip strengthening exercises.

A

Finger isometrics into radial deviation - Correct
• With rheumatoid arthritis, the fingers drift in the ulnar direction, therefore, we would want to strengthen with isometrics in the radial direction to help prevent this drift.

• Finger isometrics into ulnar deviation - Incorrect
Incorrect direction, would exacerbate the unar drift

• Gentle stretching of the collateral ligaments at the MCP joint - Incorrect
With ulnar drift, there is already too much stretching of the collateral ligaments at the MCP joint. In some patients, the ligament has even ruptured.

• Grip strengthening exercises - Incorrect
We would want to focus on strengthening the hands in a gentle, functional manner and avoid repeated gripping exercises as they can exacerbate the ulnar drift.
