Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of relative motion splint and metacarpophalangeal joint blocking splints in terms of sign and symptoms, hand function, occupational performance, and perception of splint wearability (comfort and satisfaction) after six weeks of TF management.
