In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This randomized controlled trial will compare the effectiveness of static progressive splinting versus dynamic splinting for treating persistent wrist stiffness in adults โ‰ฅ18 years old at least 8 weeks post distal radius fracture (DRF) injury. Both splinting modalities are provided as an adjunct to one weekly supervised therapy session over a 6-week period. The primary outcomes are wrist active and passive range of motion (AROM/PROM) measured using goniometry, with secondary outcomes including patient-reported wrist function (PRWE), overall satisfaction, and adverse events.
