2) This 4 year old boy had a major burn, including the need
for tracheostomy. With the focus on survival, his bilateral wrist burns
were neglected and he developed severe contractures. Although he was improved
by grafting and contracture release, the severity of his contractures could
have been lessened by splinting. His volar surface was unburned, so splinting
with wrist volar flexion, MP flexion and IP extension would have been appropriate.
