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.
Who can take part
- You are between 40 and 70 years old.
- You broke your wrist (Colle's fracture) and were treated with a plaster cast only (no surgery or pins).
- Your wrist is now stiff after the cast came off.
- You do not have a nerve or muscle condition that affects your wrist.
- 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 study compares two ways to treat a common wrist fracture: using a cast alone or using a cast plus a small metal pin (K-wire) to hold the bone in place. It aims to find which method helps you heal better and regain use of your wrist.
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 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.
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.
This study compares two ways to support the wrist after surgery for a broken distal radius. One uses a compression bandage, the other uses a splint. The goal is to see which helps you heal and return to daily activities faster.
