Summary

Different splints are used after hand extensor tendon repair (including relative motion splint, static splint, etc.) There is no consensus regarding the benefits of either one. The aim of this study is to compare clinical outcomes after using different orthoses and rehabilitation methods after hand extensor tendon repair. Patients are randomly assigned after signing consent to either immobilization with a static splint or a relative motion splint. Patients are examined after 2 and 5 months postoperatively for finger range of motion, grip strength, and DASH questionnaire.
