简要总结
There is poor research supporting the benefits of Early Active Controlled Motion (EACM) protocols post operative scaphoid fixation. Advances in surgical fixation technique for scaphoid fractures should allow for start of earlier mobilization, however there is little evidence in the literature that supports the use of these protocols within the early phases of healing. The study uses a pre-experimental design with purposeful sample population recruitment.
