Summary
This study looks at whether adding art or color to a child's cast can improve their satisfaction and reduce how much pain they feel after breaking an arm or leg bone. About 96 children aged 5 to 17 will be randomly assigned to get a plain white cast, a colored cast, or a custom-decorated cast. Researchers will compare satisfaction and pain scores between the groups.
