Very nice session. Sir I have one question that.. in injury in zone 4 ,u have told to keep slab for longer time to prevent bowing of tendon...but which side slab should given to prevent bowing? Palmer side or dorsal side??
Ask patient to wear a wrist stabilisation splint on the volar side, with wrist in 30 degrees extension for 3 months, and by this time, the strength of the flexors would have increased and a fibrous replacement for the flexor retinaculum would have been formed to reduce the bowstringing!
@@GKHandSurgery thank you very much sir. Sir can u plz tell me the exact protocol for post surgery rehabilitation. If possible upload one video on it demonstrates how to do exercise/physiotherapy... Some surgeon ask to start physiotherapy as soon as possible to prevent adhesion formation... And some says to immobile for 3 week.. kindly clear this doubt sir. My email id is Dr.rushin95@gmail.com
@@rushinthakor1471 The video session on rehabilitation protocol after flexor tendon surgery will be uploaded shortly, and it will answer all your questions and clear any doubts that you might have!
It always gives a better immobilisation for muscle level repair. But since you have asked this question, I shall study further and see if there is a more scientific reason. Can I get back to you afterwards?
