Comparing two wrist therapies after Colle's fracture
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study compares two types of gentle hand exercises to help people whose wrists have become stiff after a Colle's fracture. The goal is to see which approach works better for restoring wrist movement.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You do not have rheumatoid arthritis or other recent hand injuries like a broken knuckle.
- You have not had surgery or metal pins placed in your wrist.

This trial compares two ways to treat a broken wrist (Colles' fracture): using a cast alone versus using a small metal pin (K-wire) plus a cast. The goal is to see which method helps you regain better function.
This trial compares a structured wrist strengthening exercise program (WISE) to standard care advice for people recovering from a broken wrist (distal radius fracture). The goal is to see if guided exercises help reduce pain and improve how well your wrist works.
This Phase 2 trial studies whether Ru-Yi-Jin-Huang-Saan (a traditional Chinese medicine) helps the wrist heal better after surgery for a Colles’ fracture. If you qualify, you may receive the medicine and be asked to complete questionnaires to track healing and outcomes.
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.
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.
This study compares two ways to surgically treat a specific type of wrist fracture (where the break extends into the joint). Researchers will compare a metal plate attached to the inside of the wrist versus an external fixator (a metal frame attached to the outside) to see which helps patients recover better.
