A Review of Attitudes to Splintage in Dupuytrens ContractureFrom the Derbyshire Royal Infirmary and Canniesburn Hospital, Glasgow
A questionnaire on the use of splintage before and after operations for Dupuytrens contracture has been completed by 45 hand surgeons and ten hand therapists. None considered that preoperative splintage was beneficial, but nearly all used some form of splintage after operation. The types of splint and programmes for using them varied widely, and these are discussed.
