Official title
Early Motion After Volar Fixation for Distal Radius Fractures: A Prospective Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Many surgeons pursue volar plating of the distal radius to allow earlier post-operative wrist motion. Early motion is generally prescribed in the belief that it will result in greater final motion without compromising fixation. However, studies have failed to demonstrate clinically significant improvement in final wrist motion (\> 1 year follow up) compared to treatments requiring longer immobilization such as external fixation or bridge plating.
