Outline of Final Research Achievements

We developed a novel quantitative evaluation method of finger movements by three-dimensional motion analysis to elucidate characteristics of the movement of the myelopathy hand. Finger clumsiness due to myelopathy hand tends to improve movement in finger flexion direction compared to the extension direction. These characteristics may help to establish effective rehabilitation of myelopathy hands in the future.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

ミエロパチーハンドは様々な日常生活動作障害を引き起こし、介助が必要になることも多く、定量的な評価法や有効なリハビリテーションはこれまで確立されていなかった。有効なリハビリテーションを確立するための前段階として、本研究では、三次元動作解析を用いた手指運動の新規定量方法を確立し、術前後でのミエロパチーハンドの回復過程の特徴を明らかにすることができた。
