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.
