Summary
This study tests a surgical procedure called partial wrist denervation, done at the same time as standard fracture repair, to see if it reduces the chance of long-term wrist pain. Researchers are enrolling 56 adults with severe, shattered wrist fractures. The main goal is to measure pain and function using the Mayo Clinic Wrist Score.
