The so-called "functional position" of the hand for immobilization of an injured hand or finger may in many cases lead to stiffness of the finger joints by shrinkage of the joint capsule and -ligaments. This process can be minimized by immobilization of the small finger joints in a position where the most important ligament structures are under maximum tension. Basically this is the intrinsic-plus-position for the long fingers and palmar abduction and extension of the thumb. Immobilization in this so-called protective position of the hand minimizes immobilization damages of the small finger joints. The underlying basic principles of the anatomy are explained.
用于固定受伤手部或手指的所谓手部“功能位”，在许多情况下可能会因关节囊和韧带收缩而导致手指关节僵硬。通过将小指关节固定在最重要的韧带结构处于最大张力的位置，可以将这一过程降至最低。基本上，对于长手指来说这是内在加位，对于拇指来说是掌侧外展和伸展位。将手固定在这个所谓的保护位可将小指关节的固定损伤降至最低。文中解释了解剖学的基本原理。
