Treatment study for thumb tendon injury after wrist fracture
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at outcomes after an EPL tendon rupture that happens with a distal radius (wrist) fracture. It may help improve how thumb function is treated and measured after this specific type of injury.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a distal radius fracture (a break in the wrist bone near the hand).
- You also have an EPL rupture (an injury to a tendon that helps straighten the thumb).
- You do not have other medical problems that significantly interfere with thumb movement.
- You can fill out study forms or questionnaires (in person or by yourself with help).

This trial studies how satisfied patients are with recovery after a specific type of wrist fracture (distal radius) and how well recovery goes. It may help improve care and rehabilitation for people healing from this injury.
This study looks at whether a bio-dissolving (self-absorbing) gel improves how well the wrist flexor tendons glide after surgery for a distal radius fracture. You may be randomly assigned to use the gel or not, and the researchers will measure wrist tendon and clinical outcomes to see if it helps.
This study tests a strengthening exercise program for recovery after wrist fracture surgery. It may help you regain function faster.
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.
This study looks at how well a simple test measures recovery after a wrist fracture. It aims to find the smallest change that matters to patients, which can help guide treatment decisions.
This registry collects information and X-ray images from people who had surgery for a distal radius (wrist) fracture. It helps researchers improve fracture care by using real-world treatment and outcome data.
