No reduction vs. closed reduction for wrist fractures in older adults
This trial compares two approaches for treating a broken wrist (distal radius fracture) in people 65 and older: no reduction (letting the bone heal without realigning it) versus closed reduction (realigning the bone without surgery). It aims to see if skipping reduction leads to similar outcomes and avoids unnecessary procedures.
ViborgAges 65 years+ - NCT05974384Recruiting
Music during closed treatment to ease wrist fracture pain
This study looks at whether playing music while doctors perform a closed procedure to realign a broken wrist can reduce pain and anxiety. It may help by making the procedure feel calmer for some people.
Sabadell, BarcelonaAges 18–100 - NCT07054463Recruiting
Fu's needling for healing wrist fractures
This study tests whether adding Fu's subcutaneous needling (a special needle technique) to standard care (splinting after a bone realignment) helps heal wrist fractures faster. It's for adults who recently broke their wrist and have already had the bone set without surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–85 - NCT07552766RecruitingPhase 4
Lidocaine infusion to reduce opioid use in arm fracture surgery
This study tests whether giving a pain-relieving medication called lidocaine through an IV during arm fracture surgery can reduce how much opioid pain medication (like morphine) children need after surgery. The goal is to help manage pain better while using fewer opioids.
Wilmington, DelawareAges 3–18 - NCT07263295Recruiting
Diaphragm function after shoulder block with long-lasting numbing medication
This study checks how a nerve block for upper arm surgery affects the diaphragm, the muscle that helps you breathe. It uses a long-lasting numbing medicine to see if breathing is affected.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06179004RecruitingPhase 3
Numbing medicine comparison for wrist surgery pain
This study compares two types of numbing medicine (bupivacaine and liposomal bupivacaine) given near the collarbone before wrist surgery to see which provides better pain relief afterward.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT04323410Recruiting
Compare two ways to fix children’s forearm bone fractures
This study compares two surgical methods—casting versus percutaneous pinning—to treat certain distal (near the wrist) forearm fractures in children. It aims to find which method works best for healing and function, especially in specific fracture types.
HelsinkiAges Up to 10 years - NCT06365710Recruiting
Physiotherapy vs telerehab after wrist fracture surgery
This study compares in-person physiotherapy with remote telerehabilitation after a specific type of wrist fracture surgery. It aims to see if doing rehab at home works as well as going to a clinic.
Helsinki, UusimaaAges 18–65 - NCT06251206RecruitingPhase 1
Early education after wrist fracture surgery
This trial tests whether teaching patients about daily activities soon after wrist fracture surgery helps them recover better. It is for adults who had surgery for a broken wrist and are within 2 weeks of their operation.
Washington, VirginiaAges 18–110 - NCT05046600Recruiting
Hand and wrist implant registry for eligible adult patients
This registry collects information about people who need hand or wrist surgery using specific Arthrex implants. It helps the company and doctors learn how these implants are used and how patients do during healing.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05650996RecruitingPhase 1
Early hand therapy participation after broken wrist
This Phase 1 study looks at whether starting hand activity soon after a distal radius fracture helps improve recovery outcomes. You may be able to join if your broken wrist is treated with a cast and you can report your symptoms and function reliably in English.
Washington, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06384456RecruitingPhase 4
TXA vs Placebo for Pain After Wrist Surgery
This study tests if tranexamic acid (TXA), a medicine used to reduce bleeding, can help lessen pain right after wrist fracture surgery. You may be able to join if you had breast cancer and radiation at least a year ago, are not currently on active cancer treatment, and don't take blood thinners or daily strong pain pills.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06532253RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Long-term safety of NVDX3 implant
This study checks the long-term safety of the NVDX3 implant. You can join if you already received this implant in a previous trial and are willing to have a yearly check-up for 10 more years.
LuxembourgAges 18 years+ - NCT06913933Recruiting
Comparing two splints for wrist stiffness after a broken wrist
This study compares two types of splints (one that stays still and one that lets you move a little) to help people regain wrist motion after a broken wrist has healed. It may test whether a dynamic splint works better than a static one for persistent stiffness.
CairoAges 18–65 - NCT06913920Recruiting
Comparing therapies for hand swelling and pain after wrist fracture surgery
This trial tests whether using mechanical devices (like compression or massage) reduces swelling and pain better than standard care after wrist fracture surgery. It may help you recover hand function more comfortably.
CairoAges 18–65 - NCT07288060Enrolling by invitation
Hand therapy after wrist fracture surgery
This study tests two hand therapy methods to help improve wrist position sense after a broken wrist is fixed with metal plates and screws. It may help participants regain better control and function after surgery.
IstanbulAges 25–65 - NCT06603831Recruiting
3D digital surgery study for bone and joint procedures
This study tests whether 3D digital planning tools make surgeries for certain bone and joint problems more effective and cost-efficient. If you need a specific type of surgery on your forearm, pelvis, or spine, this trial could help determine if digital surgery improves your recovery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for radius fracture?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 41 recruiting radius fracture studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a radius fracture trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a radius fracture trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
