description Abstract Introduction Exercises are commonly prescribed to improve shoulder range following axillary burns, but the effect of additional splinting is unclear. Aim To compare splinting and exercise to exercise alone in adults with axillary burns. Method Prospective randomised study allocating participants to a splinting ( n = 27) or no splinting group ( n = 25). Outcomes measured at six and twelve weeks were shoulder abduction and flexion range, quality of life using the Burn Specific Health Scale-Brief (BSHS-B) questionnaire and upper limb function using the Upper Extremity Functional Index (UEFI) and the Grocery Shelving Task (GST). Results At week twelve, there was no difference between groups for shoulder abduction (mean difference 0°, 95% CI −22 to 22°), flexion (mean difference 2°, 95% CI −18 to 23°), BSHS-B (mean difference −2 points, 95% CI −23 to 18 points), UEFI (mean difference −3 points, 95% CI −19 to 14 points) and GST (mean difference −9 s, 95% CI −20 to 3 s). Adherence to splinting decreased from 77% of participants at week one to 16% at week twelve. Conclusion Shoulder splints did not improve clinical outcomes in this study population and low adherence rates suggest splinting may be unacceptable to patients and makes drawing firm conclusions difficult.
