Summary

Introduction: Flexion contracture is one of the most frequent complications in finger trauma. The use of orthoses to obtain the best total end range time (TERT) is the most popular method to treat this pathology . Until now, no orthosis applied for longer than 3 weeks had been able to achieve TERT longer than 12 hours.

Purpose of the study: To assess whether the elastic tension digital neoprene orthosis (ETDNO), using a serial dynamic program, can achieve a better result in ROM and TERT than other orthoses described in the literature.

Methods: analysis of outcomes in a sample of 30 patients with PIP joint flexion contracture treated with the ETDNO and serial dynamic program.
