Introduction:[edit | edit source]
Hand Exercises are used as an intervention that aims to improve the mobility and strength of the hand and therefore,improving functional ability. Hand exercise may include:
- Mobilizing exercise (Increase or maintain range of motion)
- Strengthing exercise ( that use resistance from putty, a gel ball, or elastic band to strengthen hand and wrist muscles)[1]
There are many conditions that may affect the hand and need exercise as an intervention to help patients to perform their ADL activities independently and increase the strength of handgrip. [2]
- Example of conditions:
Osteoarthritis is the most common joint disease and most frequently affects the hand.[3] This disease leads to pain in and around the affected joints and to swelling, stiffness, deformity, and gradual loss of function. As a result, the ability to perform daily tasks may become impaired or lost.[4] A randomized controlled trail conducted in 2015 found that hand exercises were well tolerated and significantly improved activity performance, grip strength, pain and fatigue in women with HOA[5].
Rheumatoid arthritis is the most common polyarthritis and affecting 1% of the population. Most of RA patients suffer from frequent problems for the hand and wrist like inflammation, deformity (swan neck deformity), pain, weakness, and restricted mobility, resulting in loss of function[1][6].
