CA 2186062

An arcuate dynamic traction device for treating a finger having an injured joint, the device being used to apply a distraction force to the injured joint and including a yoke slidably supported on an arcuate track having a free end and formed into an arch having a selected radius of curvature. The magnitude of the distraction force applied to the injured joint may be controlled using a tension adjuster that traverses the yoke and which is connected to the injured finger, an adjustable stop engaging the yoke when the desired distraction force is applied. The track is mounted to a forearm splint and can be positioned so that its relative longitudinal position to the forearm and its relative radial position will place the center of the arch on the joint and the finger will move in its normal anatomical plane, in an arcuate path concentric with the arch.
