First seen Nov 18, 2025 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 19 times
Summary
This study looks at whether wearing a cast for 4 weeks instead of 6 weeks helps adults with a broken wrist recover just as well. About 80 adults aged 18-50 with a specific type of wrist fracture will be randomly assigned to either 4 or 6 weeks of casting. The main goal is to see if the shorter cast time leads to less disability and better arm function.
