Evaluation of Splinting in Tetraplegia

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This study compared pre-fabricated and custom resting hand splints among people who were in inpatient rehabilitation after a cervical spinal cord injury.

Clinical Trial Description

This was randomized parallel group controlled clinical trial where arms, not patients were the unit of randomization. This trial was funded by the Craig H. Neilsen Allied Health Professional Development Award of the American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA). This research was conducted at a 32-bed spinal cord injury and multi-trauma rehabilitation unit in an urban center. Participants were recruited from an inpatient spinal cord injury rehabilitation unit. Eligible participants were 18 years or older and undergoing acute rehabilitation after a cervical spinal cord injury with hand function impairment, and the primary occupational therapist deemed splinting intervention was required. Each eligible extremity was randomized to receive a custom or pre-fabricated resting hand splint for night use. ;
