Recovery exercises during ankle fracture bracing
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a program of exercises and activity monitoring while your ankle is in a brace after a fracture. It aims to help you recover strength and movement faster.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have a broken ankle that was treated with or without surgery.
- Your fracture is not a pathological fracture (caused by disease) or an open fracture (bone through the skin).
- You do not need to keep your ankle completely non-weight-bearing (no weight on it at all).
- You do not have a condition that prevents you from following the study procedures, such as severe nerve damage or a serious psychiatric disorder.
- You are not allergic to the adhesive patches used in the study, and you can read and speak Danish.

This study tests whether wearing a brace after an ankle fracture helps healing better than standard care. It is for adults who have been treated for an ankle fracture and can already put weight on their foot.
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 study tests whether wearing a compression bandage or sleeve helps reduce swelling after ankle surgery or a broken ankle, and whether it helps you recover faster.
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 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.
This trial studies how patients recover after ankle arthroscopy (a minimally invasive surgery to look inside the ankle joint). It may help doctors learn what to expect during recovery.
