Patients and their families will instructed to learn the anti contracture positioning/splinting, scar massage and exercises program, application of the custom garments and inserts, and functional training to perform them on their own at home. Written and illustrative instructions and reciprocal demonstration sessions will be provided to the children and their families to ensure successful acquisition and delivery of rehabilitation skills at home program. The therapist will be reported about compliance with the home program every couple of days

The wrist joint is splinted at 30 hyperextension, the MCP joint in 90 of flexion, the IP joints in extension, and the thumb in abduction. The webs of fingers kept in abduction. The hands are elevated above the level of the heart to minimize post-burn edema.

Splinting: Splints are tailored to help to maintain the functional or anti-contracture position of the injured body parts.The intervals for monitoring vary from once every hour to once every 4-6 hours, depending on types of splints and skin conditions. It is described as 10 hours on and two hours off. When the splint is taken off, active and/or passive ROM should be carried out.

1. Passive ROM (PROM).
2. Active ROM (AROM) & Active-assistive ROM (AAROM): The exercise will focus on extending the wrist to 45 degrees, flexing the MCP joints to 90 degrees and keeping the IP joints in full extension, while maintaining a thumb web space. The exercises will performed in the following sequences; (1) MCP joints flexion and extension with the wrist in neutral or slight extension and the IP joints in neutral position. (2) IP joints flexion to only 30-40 degrees with the wrist stabilized in the neutral or slight extension, while the MCP joints held in full extension, (3) thumb and fingers abduction and adduction, and (4) thumb opposition (tip of the thumb to tip of the small finger). Each exercise was performed for 8-10 repetition, daily, for 6 days/week.
3. Stretching exercises: A low-load (low-intensity), long-duration stretch
4. Strengthening exercises: done in static mode initially and progress to dynamic strengthening using elastic bands.
