dc.description.abstractTwenty-five fresh frozen flexor digitorum profundus tendons stratified by sex were subjected to uniaxial step stress and cyclic loads in twelve intact human cadaver hands. By attaching specially designed clip strain gage transducers on tendons just proximal and distal to an undisrupted carpal tunnel, the interactions of the tendons, tendon sheath and retinacula were measured.The elastic and viscous response of the tendon composites to step stresses were found to fit fractional power functions of stress and time respectively. A significant and quantifiable decrease in strain from the proximal to the distal tendon segment was found to be a function of wrist deviation.The results indicate that an accumulation of strain does occur in tendinous tissues during physiologic loading.en_US
