Study Summary

Primary Question: "When splinting is used to improve motion in post-traumatic stiff elbows, is there a significant difference in gains in motion achieved between static progressive or dynamic splint approaches?" Secondary Question: "Is there a significant difference in patient compliance with static progressive versus dynamic splint use, and does this effect final ulnohumeral motion outcomes?"

Primary Outcome

Active ulnohumeral motion will be measured using a hand-held goniometer by the co-investigator not involved in the care of the patient at enrollment and 6 months after enrollment.
