Simpler rehab plan after ankle or tibial plafond fracture
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a simpler “at-home” rehabilitation plan after ankle or lower-leg bone (tibial plafond) fractures works as well as standard care. It may help you recover strength and walking function with less clinic time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You had an ankle fracture or tibial plafond fracture that was treated with surgery
- You were walking before your injury (not non-ambulatory)
- Your recovery plan should allow you to bear weight on the injured leg by about 6 weeks
- You do not have major nerve or balance problems that would make walking or doing home exercises unsafe
- You can realistically attend follow-up check-ins

This study tests a new exercise program called the Ankle Muscle Power (AMP) program to help people get back to full duty after an ankle fracture surgery. It aims to see if this program is effective and practical for recovery.
This trial studies how best to manage serious ankle or tibia-pilon fractures in older adults who may be frail or have other major health problems. The goal is to improve care decisions and outcomes after injury, especially in people more likely to have complications.
This trial tests a new way to help people recover after ankle fracture surgery. Instead of only using paper leaflets or checkups, you would use a simple online video platform to follow an early exercise plan from home, which may help you move better and recover faster.
This trial studies rehabilitation after a tibia (shinbone) shaft fracture that is fixed with a metal nail. You may be asked to complete questionnaires and to take part in a rehab plan that aims to improve recovery after injury.
This study tests a rehabilitation program for people who had surgery to fix a broken thigh or shin bone with a metal rod. It aims to help you walk better and recover more fully after your injury.
This trial tests a specific exercise program started soon after surgery for a type of knee fracture called a tibial spine avulsion. It is meant for young, active people who had a recent fall or sports injury and may help them recover movement and strength faster.
