Midcarpal Joint Motion Dominates Carpal Motion During a Simulated Hammering Task
ثبت نشده
چکیده
positions the subjects selected during the hammering task were located along the Dart Thrower's path from radial-extension to ulnarflexion. These positions were normalized to the neutral hammering position to calculate the average hammering path.

Understanding the kinematics of the carpus is essential to the understanding and treatment of wrist pathologies. However, accurate measurement of the kinematics of the carpal bones is difficult because they are small bones undergoing complex movements of small amplitudes. As a result, to date, there is no clear consensus on carpal kinematics. Moreover, most studies only investigate single rotat...
متن کاملSimulated radioscapholunate fusion alters carpal kinematics while preserving dart-thrower's motion.
PURPOSE Midcarpal degeneration is well documented after radioscapholunate fusion. This study tested the hypothesis that radioscapholunate fusion alters the kinematic behavior of the remaining lunotriquetral and midcarpal joints, with specific focus on the dart-thrower's motion. METHODS Simulated radioscapholunate fusions were performed on 6 cadaveric wrists in an anatomically neutral posture....
متن کاملIn Vivo Triquetrum-Hamate Kinematics During a Hammering Motion
INTRODUCTION: The triquetrum-hamate (TqH) joint has classically been described as a saddle joint with the hamate (HAM) having a helicoidal or screw shape into which the triquetrum (TRQ) rotates. The kinematics of the TqH joint lacks consensus, however, as some believe the TRQ follows a path on an oval surface. A complete understanding of the normal kinematics of the TqH joint is needed for the ...
متن کاملIn vivo triquetrum-hamate kinematics through a simulated hammering task wrist motion.
BACKGROUND The shape and kinematics of the triquetrum-hamate joint have been the subject of continued research, as its articulation provides wrist stability and motion. The purpose of this study was to measure the in vivo articulation of the triquetrum-hamate joint as the wrist moves along an important functional wrist motion, the dart thrower's path. METHODS The right wrist of six male and s...
متن کاملTreating mid carpal instability conservatively
Carpal/Wrist instability is the result of a large variety of conditions. Any alteration of the shape of the wrist bones or the connections between them can affect the dynamic balance of forces and the wrists unique multiplane movements. Sensorimotor function is a term used to describe sensory, motor and central processes pertaining to joint stability. Wrist joint proprioception and sensorimotor...
