Neurotizations for Restoring Grip Function

This is a prospective cohort study in which four patients underwent neurotizations for AIN between April 2015 and May 2018. The treatment aimed to recover the flexors of the fingers of the affected hand, for recovery of the grip, and the treatment was clinically evaluated by the BRMC strength scale. Preoperatively, potential donor nerves were clinically tested, specifically the pronation and flexion of the wrist to the median nerve and the supination of the forearm and extension of the wrist, fingers, and thumb to the radial nerve.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
