| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Traction was applied to 10 hands from 10 healthy adults using an experimental device that allowed distraction in a constant direction with a constant traction force, to compare changes in the angles and joint spaces of the radiolunate joint and capitolunate joints using MRI.
A significant increase was noted in the angle of the radiolunate joint in the neutral and extended positions, with a significant widening of the joint space in the capitolunate joint. Results suggest this device would be effective in rehabilitation aimed at recovering range of motion.
