Distal Radius Fracture Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Short Term Effect of Hot Packs and Whirlpool for Increasing Total Active Motion at the Wrist
This study investigates the effect of hot packs versus whirlpool and exercise for patients with distal radius fracture (DRF). Patients with recently healed DRF are randomized into two groups, with one group receiving hot packs during therapy and the other immersing the arm in a whirlpool for 3 consecutive therapy visits. The effect of these modalities on range of motion and volume of the hand are evaluated, with measurements taking place before and immediately after heat during each visit.
This study investigates the short term effect of hot packs versus whirlpool and exercise for
patients with distal radius fracture (DRF) during a therapy visit. Patients with recently
healed DRF are randomized into two groups, with one group receiving hot packs during therapy
and the other immersing the arm in a whirlpool for 3 consecutive therapy visits.
Measurements of wrist and forearm range of motion, and volume of the hand are recorded
before and immediately after heat for each visit, effectively creating six measurement time
points. Change scores are recorded for range of motion and for volume, and analyzed using
MANOVA to determine differences between groups.
