Hand external fixation and joint mobilization and distraction device

A hand fracture, burn and contracture treatment device comprising:

• a. a first housing comprising a top surface, a bottom surface and a central axial channel;
• b. a first axial member slidably housed within said central axial channel of said first housing and comprising a distal end and a proximal end, said proximal end extending beyond said first housing;
• c. a first position adjusting device mounted on said first housing so as to rotatably engage said first axial member;
• d. a first adjustable motion restraining device coupled to said first axial member;
• e. a spherical joint housing comprising an outside, an inside and a recess, said spherical joint housing attached to the proximal end of said first axial member;
• f. a second housing comprising a top surface, a bottom surface and a central axial channel;
• g. a second axial member slidably housed within said central axial channel of said second housing and comprising a distal end and a proximal end said proximal end extending beyond said second housing;
• h. a second adjustable motion restraining device coupled to said second axial member;
• i. a spherical joint attached to the proximal end of said second axial member, said spherical joint rotatably connected to the inside of said spherical joint housing;
• and
• j. an adjustable rotation motion device coupled to said spherical joint or to said spherical joint housing.

A hand fracture, burn and contracture treatment device comprising:

• a. a first housing comprising a top surface, a bottom surface, a central axial channel, and a threaded channel extending through said top surface;
• b. a first axial member slidably housed within said central axial channel of said first housing and comprising a distal end and a proximal end, said proximal end extending beyond said first housing;
• c. a set screw mounted in the threaded channel of said first housing so as to rotatably engage said first axial member;
• d. a first adjustable motion restraining device coupled to said first axial member;
• e. a spherical joint housing comprising an outside, an inside and a recess, said spherical joint housing rigidly attached to the proximal end of said first axial member;
• f. a second housing comprising a top surface, a bottom surface, a central axial channel, and a threaded channel extending through said top surface;
• g. a second axial member slidably housed within said central axial channel of said second housing and comprising a distal end and a proximal end said proximal end extending beyond said second housing;
• h. a set screw mounted in the threaded channel of said second housing so as to rotatable engage said first axial member;
• i. a second adjustable motion restraining device coupled to said second axial member;
• j. a spherical joint attached to the proximal end of said second axial member, said spherical joint rotatably mounted inside of said spherical joint housing;
• and
• k. an adjustable rotation motion device coupled to said spherical joint or to said spherical joint housing.
