and about 22% of patients with FDS&FDP injuries achieved excellent and 74% good range of total active motion.With earlier performed primary surgical tendon repair followed by Kleinert-early passive mobilization protocol may achieves satisfactory functional results for any flexor tendon injuries in zones...
The stimulation protocol consisted in a single stimulus of 20 mA given at the fifth second after protocol initiation. This latency time was used to ensure correct position of stimulation electrode. CMAP was cal- culated as the total amplitude of the sinusoidal recording (half period voltage ...
Patients with FTI were treated by the Kleinert protocol, and those with ETI and CTI were treated by the immobilization technique. Patients in all groups were assessed by the total active motion (TAM) scoring system of the American Society of Surgery of Hand (ASSH), distal palmar crease-finger...

However, it has never been investigated, involving patients in a randomized setup, whether early controlled motion of the ankle joint is beneficial for the healing of the Achilles tendon in a non-operative treatment protocol. With this project we wish to investigate the effect of early controlled...
Results Average passive range of motion (ROM) of the proximal and distal interphalangeal joints before flexor tendon grafting was 146掳 (SD, 22掳). Mean active ROM of these joints at the final evaluation was 123掳 (SD, 34掳). Using the LaSalle formula, mean recovery of active motion was...
