Elbow joint training: when the patient has partial separation movement, elbow flexion and extension, internal and external rotation can be performed. 3. Wrist and finger training: when the patient has sufficient separation movement, carry out wrist dorsiflexion, flexion, finger extension, bending and other movements, and after a certain degree of recovery, carry out fine finger movements, such as grasping, gripping, holding objects and other fine movements.
