Wrist fracture recovery goes virtual: new study tests remote Follow-Up
NCT ID NCT07219979
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether remote monitoring through a secure app can safely replace in-person follow-up visits after wrist fracture surgery. Researchers will compare recovery, satisfaction, and complication rates between 160 adults who use virtual check-ins and those who attend standard clinic visits. If effective, this approach could make post-surgery care more convenient for patients.
