Functional Splinting efficacy in a Specific Task Home Program for Children with Cerebral Palsy. A Randomized Controlled Trial.

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether wearing a functional hand splint adds benefit to carrying out a task-specific home program. Thirty-three children were randomly assigned to the Specific Task and Splint Group or to a comparison group. Participants were evaluated before and after 6...

      ab: The purpose of this study is to investigate whether wearing a functional hand splint adds benefit to carrying out a task-specific home program. Thirty-three children were randomly assigned to the Specific Task and Splint Group or to a comparison group. Participants were evaluated before and after 6 weeks of intervention and at 14 weeks of follow-up. Both groups improved on the Assisting Hand Assessment and the Children's Hand-use Experience Questionnaire (AHA Units p =.000; CHEQ bimanual tasks p =.000; CHEQ grasp efficacy p =.000 and CHEQ time utilization p =.018). No differences were found between the groups after the intervention or after the follow-up. Hand skills improved in both groups who received a task-specific home program. Wearing a functional hand splint did not appear to improve effectiveness in addition to the home program. This study is registered in ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03282422).
