NCT ID: NCT02670629 Completed - Radius Fractures Clinical Trials

Management of Distal Radius Fractures in Children Younger Than 11 Years Old.

Start date: January 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This fractures have been managed with anatomical reduction performed under anesthesia or using sedatives. In our institution this means prolonged hospital stay, involvement of an anesthesiologist and the use of an special room in the Emergency Department. This research protocol was born after reports were published regarding leaving the fractures in an overriding position and cast with good functional and acceptable radiographical results; said study was observational, providing valuable but limited information about this treatment option. On the other hand, our study is a randomized controlled trial between to groups of patients younger than 11 years old who presented to the Emergency Department with completely displaced distal radius fractures, they were randomly assigned to one of two groups, either a closed anatomic reduction and short cast or a closed overriding alignment and short cast.
