Brief Summary: STSGs are used to close wounds and minimize infections After receiving a meshed or sheet split-thickness skin graft STSG to the upper extremity or hand for a thermal burn injury burn surgeons use different methods to improve graft take and reduce complications This includes different start dates and times for activity

The goal of this clinical trial is to provide more evidence to improve rehabilitation procedures after STSG operations for patients with burn injuries The main questions it aims to answer are

To determine if early mobilization is non-inferior to late mobilization of the upper extremity after meshed STSG with regards to wound healing in adult burn patients
To determine if early mobilization is non-inferior to late mobilization of the upper extremity after sheet STSG with regards to wound healing in adult burn patients

Participants will be assigned randomly like flipping a coin to one of two groups early mobilization and late mobilization Mobilization is the range of motion exercises performed under the supervision of the physical therapy team Researchers will compare early and late mobilization to see if there are differences in wound healing range of motion local and systemic complications and discharge outcomes

Participants will be asked to

Early mobilization group begin mobilization of their upper extremity one day after their STSG operation If their burn includes a graft to your hand early mobilization of this area will begin three days after their STSG operation
Late mobilization group elevate their elbow in a splint to limit movement until five days after their operation and begin mobilization five days after their STSG operation
