PY - 2018 T2 - Reichman's Emergency Medicine Procedures, 3e AB - Dislocation of the interphalangeal (IP) joints is one of the most common orthopedic injuries seen in the Emergency Department (ED).1-3 Most of these injuries occur during athletic activities. The proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint is especially susceptible to injury during ball-handling sports.2-5 Among dislocations, IP joint injuries are second only to shoulder dislocations in incidence.4 While IP joint dislocations are generally easy to reduce, improperly treated injuries can result in chronic pain, swelling, restricted range of motion, deformity, and early degenerative arthritis.1,6,7 Emergency Physicians must be proficient in diagnosing and treating IP joint dislocations.
