Flexor Injury Rehabilitation Splint Trial (FIRST): Protocol for a pragmatic randomised controlled trial comparing three splints for finger flexor tendon repairs

2024-02-14

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Without surgical repair, flexor tendon injuries do not heal and patients’ ability to bend fingers and grip objects is impaired. However, flexor tendon repair surgery also requires optimal rehabilitation. There are currently three custom-made splints used in the rehabilitation of zone I/II flexor tendon repairs, each with different assumed harm/benefit profiles; the dorsal fo...
