Distal Radius Fracture: Comparison Between Three and Six Weeks of Percutaneous Fixation
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Percutaneous pinning time for Radius Fracture Distal. Completed, enrolled 60 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
BACKGROUND. Distal radius fractures (FRD) are up to 17% of all diagnosed fractures and are the most commonly treated fractures in adult orthopedic patients. The management could be either conservative or surgical, depending on AO bone fracture classification. The principles of good treatment involves an anatomical reduction with a proper immobilization that keep the reduction. OBJECTIVE. Determine if percutaneous pinning for six weeks versus three has major complications in distal radius fractures.
