Ergotherapeutic splinting is essential in the treatment of diseases, injuries and innate deformities of the hand. However due to its high material and staff costs, a definitely diagnosed indication is a prequisite for prescription. A retrospective study was performed using the Krankenhausinformationssystem (KIS) to establish the total number of hand splints prescribed by the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation of the General Hospital of Vienna from 1/1992 until 8/1998, as well as referring doctors/departments and diagnoses leading to referral were recorded and descriptively evaluated. The total number of patients was 1972. 1236 (63%) of the cases were referred by surgical departments/branches, 410 (20%) by internal departments, 151 (8%) by the neurological department and 175 (9%) by other departments. The diagnosis leading to referral were rheumatoid arthropathies (542 = 26%), peripheral nerve lesions (458 = 22%), tendon lesions (201 = 10%), Dupuytren' contractures after surgery (184 = 8%), degenerative joint diseases (82 = 4%), conditions after fractures (55 = 2.5%), patients after amputations (50 = 2.3%), disorders of the central nervous system (53 = 2.5%), focus removals (40 = 2%) and tendovagintis (35 = 1.7%). The remaining 19% were referred due to surgical repositionings, soft tissue injuries, local infections and various other diagnoses. The majority of ergotherapeutic splintings was prescribed due to forms of rheumatic or rheumatoid diseases, peripheral nerve lesions as well as hand surgery. In this study documenting the clinical practice of a medical center was primarily aimed at providing the basis for further discussion of both factual and economic aspects of future developments in splinting.
