Filter by:The purpose of this randomized control trial will be to determine whether the duration of bridge plate fixation of distal radius fractures can be reduced to 6-8 weeks without worsening of functional outcomes relative to the current standard of greater than 12 weeks of fixation. The secondary aim of the study is to determine whether a reduced duration of bridge plate fixation leads to an increase in wrist range of motion following plate removal compared to the standard duration of fixation. 100 patients with comminuted distal radius fractures that are indicated for bridge plate fixation will be randomized to the Accelerated Removal arm (n = 50) or the Standard Removal arm (n = 50).
Background: Several studies have investigated the degree of final displacement and its association with clinical outcome. There is still no consensus on the importance of radiological outcome and published studies do not use the same criteria for an acceptable alignment. Previous reports have used a linear or a dichotomized exposure in the statistical analysis, but no study has investigated a nonlinear association. Methods: We included 438 patients treated for a distal radius fracture (DRF) with either reduction and cast immobilization or surgery. Radiographic outcomes were determined by radiographs 3 months after the injury. Clinical outcome was determined by QuickDASH (qDASH), ROM and grip strength at 1-year after the injury. Nonlinear correlations were analysed with cubic splines.
It was designed as a randomized controlled prospective. After 2 weeks of splint follow-up, the splints of the patients who were operated due to distal radius fracture and volar plate were applied will be removed and included in the physical therapy program. The measurements and scores of the patients at the time of removal of the splint will be recorded. Patients' non-injured contralateral extremity data will also be recorded. The dominant party will be registered. Preoperative fracture classification of the patients, reduction parameters after surgery, waiting time for post-fracture surgery, pre-fracture chronic diseases, cognitive disorders, psychiatric disease histories, whether the patients lived alone at home or not will be recorded. Patients will be randomized with the help of a free computer aided numerator. The patients will be divided into two groups and conventional face-to-face rehabilitation will be applied to one group, and the previously planned tele-rehabilitation program will be applied to the other group.
This is a randomized clinical trial of two parallel arms, aiming to compare two rehabilitation interventions: an experimental intervention including telemedicine support and remote monitoring of compliance of usual indicated exercises, versus the usual protocol of indicated exercises supported by printed material (triptych) and without remote monitoring
The distal end of the radius is defined as the area three centimeters proximal to the radio carpal joint, where the radius interfaces with the lunate and scaphoid bone of the wrist. A fracture of the distal radius is usually caused by falling on the outstretched arm. The majority of distal radial fractures are closed injuries in which the overlying skin remains intact. Pain, swelling, bruising, deformity and deformity in the forearm or wrist are common. In women, the incidence of distal radial fracture increases with age from 40 years. The objective of this study will be to determine the Effects of Concentric exercises with and without mulligan wrist mobilization on pain, grip strength, Range of motion and function after distal radius fracture. This study will be a randomized controlled trial and will be conducted in District Head Quarter hospital sheikhupura. The study will be completed in time duration of six months after the approval of synopsis and convenience sampling technique will be used. 18 subjects will be divided in two groups. Group A will follow concentric exercises at wrist including flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, pronation, supination and wrist mobilizations with movements while group B will follow only wrist concentric exercises treatment. MWM based on Mulligan's Recommendation that the patient should not experience any pain. The Location and direction of the glide could be modified so that the MWM was pain free, as advocated in the Mulligan concept. This study will be of 4 weeks, 3 sessions per week. Data will be collected by all participants before 1st session after 6th session and at the end of 12th session by using NPRS, Hand Dynamometer, Goniometer and Patient Rated Wrist Evaluation score. Data will be analyzed by SPSS-25.
This study's goal is to evaluate whether blood flow restriction supplemented therapy is a superior therapy compared to traditional standard of care while recovering from a surgery that repairs distal radius fractures. In order to measure this, subjects will be randomly assigned to either the traditional therapy group (with standard of care) or a blood flow restriction supplemented therapy group. All patients involved in this study will have had a distal radius fracture that is repaired with a technique called volar plating and the procedure will be done via an open technique. All subjects will be asked to fill out questionnaires that assess their pain and wrist functionality throughout the course of the study. These measurements will help understand whether the supplemented therapy is effective at reducing pain and improving functionality for patients who are recovering from this injury.
Surgical treatment for patients with a fracture of the ankle or distal radius is commonly offered on an outpatient basis. Patients are routinely discharged from hospital within 4 hours of their procedure. The surgery is commonly performed under peripheral nerve block with sedation, or under general anesthesia with postoperative peripheral nerve block, (if required for analgesic purposes). It is unclear which of these two strategies offers patients superior pain relief in the first few days following surgery. This trial aims to compare the pain intensity and analgesic medication consumption between patients in these two groups.
The aim of this study was to compare the effect of blood flow restriction (BFR) training and traditional rehabilitation training on grip strength, pinch strength (tip pinch strength, key pinch strength and tripod pinch strength), range of motion (ROM) of wrist, patient-rated wrist evaluation (PRWE) score, muscle stiffness and radiographic outcomes in distal radius fracture (DRF) patients during a post-treatment rehabilitation program.
The purpose of this study is to compare if there are differences in wrist function and pain after a distal radius fracture treated conservatively with immobilization for 4 or 6 weeks in elderly patients after six months of follow-up.
Distal Radius End Fracture (DRC) is one of the most common fractures among all extremity fractures and wrist fractures . Pain, edema and functional loss are common findings in patients, and the physiotherapy program should be well planned from an early time. However, although there are different physiotherapy and rehabilitation applications in the treatment of DRC, there is not enough information about the effectiveness of the applications when the evidence-based studies are examined. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of motor imagery added to conventional treatment versus conventional treatment with telerehabilitation in patients with distal radius end fracture. Motor imagery is defined as the mental presentation of voluntary movement without body movement. It is an application that does not require cost and it is a training that can be easily applied in rehabilitation programs. Telerehabilitation is important in the management of patients in the acute phase of the disease, as well as in the remote management of individuals with chronic health problems. Cases who applied to Istanbul University-Cerrahpaşa Medical Faculty Orthopedics and Traumatology Clinic and were referred to Istanbul University-Cerrahpaşa Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Department will be included in the study. Few studies have examined the effects of motor imagery on pain, kinesiophobia, and functionality in musculoskeletal injuries. Studies on the effects of motor imagery on different patient groups are needed. Therefore, in our study, the effect of motor imagery training applied with the telerehabilitation method on pain, kinesiophobia and functionality in patients with distal radius end fracture will be examined. Sociodemographic data form of all subjects who volunteered to participate in the study; Age, gender, height, weight, pain, dominant extremity, and the type of fracture will be questioned. In addition, pain intensity is measured with a visual analog scale, normal joint movement measurement (wrist flexion, extension, ulnar and radial deviation, and forearm supination and pronation) with goniometer, hand grip strength with "Hydraulic hand dynamometer" , finger grip strength "Hydraulic Finger Dynamometer", kinesiophobia Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale, functionality "Arm, Shoulder and Hand Injury Questionnaire in Turkish (Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder and Hand-Turkish - DASH-T and The Patient-Based Wrist Assessment Questionnaire (HBEBD), with the fine dexterity Moberg Pick Up test, the motor imagery ability with the Recognize™ phone app and the Kinesthetic and Visual Imagery Questionnaire, quality of life will be evaluated with SF-12. After the initial evaluation, the treatment program was started. Advances in the treatment method specific to the groups they belong to are explained in detail below. Treatment: After the distal radius end fracture, after 6 weeks of plaster application, after the first evaluation to be made in the clinic after the plaster was removed, in the next session, after patient education, conventional treatment was applied to the cases in Group 1, 3 days a week as stated below. Group 2: Conservative Treatment + Motor Imagery Program Patients in this group will have motor imagery in addition to conservative treatment. The patients in this group will first be given a motor imagery introductory session. According to the results of the observation and evaluation made by the physiotherapist before the treatment, the function of the patients
