Hi Darnell,
In doing a quick search I'm finding that this type
of injury is sometimes associated with RA. Try this site for info:
Hope this helps,
Nancy Costa

Yes, I am also. Don't really understand how the IV insertion could have
caused this. Did the insertion go smoothly or did the nurse do a lot of
probing? Not even sure that this would cause the tendon rupture. Please let
us know the outcome! Lynn

site was note as
"in dorsum of hand" - surgeon's report "the common extensor tendons
of the index, long and ring fingers were found to be completely
ruptured" no problems prior to IV being established - I am totally
perplexed

Never heard of this! If the site was in the fingers, I would
have to look at what they did to stabilize the catheter and support the
joints. Lynn

Subject: needle safety
Have a situation where a family member wants the
nurses in a long term care facility to use lancets for their
mother that are not safety. Can anyone tell me how and where to
find the law that states that all needle devices must be safety?
Thanks in advance for the info as do not have the time to research
on the web myself. This is why this site is wonderful, those of us
that don't know can contact those that do.
