This study tests whether a special splint called a 'relative motion orthosis' can help people regain movement in a stiff finger joint after an injury or surgery. If you have a recent finger joint problem and are willing to do hand therapy, this trial may help you recover better.
This trial studies a new implant (the CapFlex) to replace a damaged finger joint (the PIP joint) when conservative treatments are not enough. It may help reduce pain and improve stability for the right type of joint problem.
This study tests whether a special splint (called a relative motion orthosis) can help improve how straight you can straighten a finger that has been injured. It focuses on people with stiffness in the middle finger joint.
This trial tests a special, sterilized piece of umbilical cord tissue (amniotic membrane) that is placed in the finger joint during surgery to help reduce pain and improve function for people with arthritis in the middle joint of the finger. It's for patients who haven't gotten better with standard medical treatments and are considering surgery.
This study tests if a procedure that quiets the nerves around a painful finger joint (PIP joint denervation) can reduce pain and improve hand function for people with osteoarthritis. It offers a possible alternative before considering more invasive surgery.
This study looks at outcomes—how well treatment works—after injuries to the finger or thumb flexor tendons. If your injury happened in a certain location of the tendon and you meet other safety criteria, your care and results may help improve future treatment.
