Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Static-progressive splint
Static-Progressive Splint
Static progressive splinting is a well-established adjunct for restoring elbow motion. Such splints apply a static stress relaxation force to the elbow tissues, which is sequentially increased, as motion is achieved.
Dynamic Splint
Dynamic Splint
Dynamic splints are a popular alternative, and apply a constant prolonged force to the tissues as additional motion is achieved.
