Fear of movement and recovery after a non-surgical broken wrist

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study measures whether kinesiophobia predicts functional recovery in patients with conservatively treated distal radius fractures. Researchers will use the Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale to quantify fear of movement and will measure wrist joint range of motion and upper extremity weight-bearing to capture physical function. Patient-rated wrist disability will be recorded using the Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation (PRWE) questionnaire. Eligible participants are adults with an isolated distal radius fracture managed non-surgically and without cognitive impairment, while those with bilateral or other musculoskeletal/neurovascular injuries are excluded.
