Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Radius Fractures
Registration Number
NCT07037355
Lead Sponsor
Superior University
Brief Summary

The study investigates whether hand-eye coordination is related to handgrip strength in children (aged 5-12 years) after they have healed from distal radius greenstick fractures. This is important because both strength and coordination are crucial for a child's full functional recovery after such fractures.
