Beschreibung
Oedema of the hand can develop either as an individual symptom of upper-extremity hemiplegia or as a component of the shoulder-hand syndrome. The potentially painful swelling of the hand leads to a passive and active impairment of the fingers' and wrist's mobility. This exercise program enables relatives as well as therapists to selectively and passively treat the patient's neurological hand oedema. By progressing step by step from shoulder girdle down to the fingers, plain grips and handlings for a goal-oriented intervention and positioning are presented.
