Commercial static wrist extensor orthoses are frequently used when joint support, rather than immobilization, is desired. This study compared hand function, comfort, and interference during daily tasks when 23 able-bodied women used their unencumbered dominant hands and when they wore each of five commercial static wrist extensor orthoses: Kendall-Futuro #33, AliMed Freedom Long, AliMed Freedom Short, Rolyan D-Ring, and LMB Wrist Rest. There was no significant difference in hand speeds among the orthoses for six of the seven tasks within the Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function Test. However, when subject comfort and interference during daily activities were considered in conjunction with speed, the shorter padded orthosis (represented by the Rolyan D-ring) appeared to be a desirable "first choice" among the commercial orthoses that were studied.
当需要关节支撑而非固定时,商业用静态腕伸肌矫形器经常被使用。本研究比较了23名身体健全的女性在使用未受束缚的优势手以及佩戴五种商业静态腕伸肌矫形器(肯德尔-富图罗#33、阿里Med自由长款、阿里Med自由短款、罗利安D型环和LMB手腕支撑)时,日常任务中的手部功能、舒适度和干扰情况。在杰布森-泰勒手部功能测试的七个任务中的六个任务中,各矫形器之间的手部速度没有显著差异。然而,当将日常活动中的受试者舒适度和干扰与速度结合起来考虑时,较短的带衬垫矫形器(以罗利安D型环为代表)似乎是所研究的商业矫形器中理想的“首选”。
