It is characterized by inflammation in the joints, leading to pain, swelling, stiffness, and reduced mobility. These symptoms can cause significant limitations and negatively impact quality of life. Hand splints are often used as a complementary therapy for RA patients to improve hand function and alleviate pain.

This condition can be debilitating and significantly impact hand function and quality of life. Finger splints are a widely used intervention for swan neck deformity, but there is limited evidence regarding their effectiveness. This study focuses on comparing the effectiveness of two types of finger splints in treating swan neck deformity in RA patients: prefabricated thermoplastic splints (PTS) and silver ring splints (SRS).
