Brief summary
Effect of constraint induced movement therapy on burned dominant hand function
Detailed description
Effect of constraint induced movement therapy on burned dominant hand function We investigate the Effect of constraint induced movement therapy on burned dominant hand function by using various measurement tools : * Hand grip strength by Hand held dynamometer * Metacarpophalangeal joint flexion (MCP) by goniometer * Function by michgan hand questionnaire A randomised controlled trial (2 groups) First group will receive constraint induced movement therapy (glove mitt) on sound hand . Second group will receive the traditional treatment ( stretching - positioning ) We do the assessment before treatment and (4-8) after the start of treatment process.
Interventions
Constraint the sound side and encourage movement of the burned side
Position hand in functional hand position - stretching against deformity position
constraining sound hand to enforce patient to use affected burned dominant hand
