 We assessed the symptomatic effects of wrist band with restriction of middle finger extension (the wrist band) and an elbow counterforce bracing (the elbow brace) in 24 participants with extensor carpi radialis tendonitis (tennis elbow). The remission scores of the Stratford index of difficulty for activities of daily living (ADL difficulty) and a visual analogue scale (VAS) were compared between the two orthosis groups at the conclusion of the study. The remission score of ADL difficulty and VAS significantly improved in the wrist band group (n=13) compared with the elbow brace group (n=11), (p=0.005, p=0.021, respectively). Although the insertion of the extensor carpi radialis brevis is the third metacarpus, ordinary orthotic devices for tennis elbow do not regulate the extension of the middle finger. The results from the current study suggested that a wrist band with restriction of middle finger extension might be more comfortable and effective than an elbow counterforce bracing for patients with tennis elbow.
