It covers the whole process, from assessing the child to choosing splint designs and thermoplastic materials and then forming them, using photographs and drawn instructions. The physiological sections separate a soft end feel from a hard one, define contracture, and explain how a joint held in a shortened position loses functional tissue length, down to the loss of muscle sarcomeres. These discussions are used to guide splint design and the planning of wearing schedules. The authors argue that prolonged stretch from a splint reduces contracture more effectively than brief passive range-of-motion exercise, although passive ranging is still needed. They advise that children with traumatic injuries or burns can be treated much as adults are.
