简要总结
This study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT). This RCT which will study the effect of performing daily activities early after a distal radius fracture being treated with surgical intervention of open reduction and internal fixation. This study will have two groups. The experimental group will watch a video and be given a handout on how to perform daily activities with the hand of the injured wrist while recovering from surgery and postoperative instructions. The control group will watch a video on wound care and be given a handout on postoperative instructions. Outcome measures will be taken at initial evaluation between 1-2 weeks post surgery, at 5-7 weeks post surgery, at 8-10 weeks, and at 12-14 weeks. Outcome measures will include the Michigan Wrist Evaluation, Visual Analog Pain Scale, Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia-11 Scale, finger mobility testing, grip and pinch strength, and the 9 hole peg test to test fine motor coordination. Outcome measure scores will be compared between groups using a t-test statistical test. Outcome measure scores will also be tested within groups using a paired t-test.
详细描述
- The surgeon will recruit patients who have had surgery for a distal radius fracture with open reduction and internal fixation and have met inclusion and exclusion criteria utilizing a recruitment statement.
- If the patient is interested in participating in the study, the surgeon will obtain informed consent and email a copy of the informed consent form to the patient.
- Once informed consent is obtained, the surgeon will ask the front desk to give him an envelop which will include a letter with either the word control or experimental group on it.
- Once the surgeon reads the letter, the subject will receive either the standard of care video and handout (control) or the intervention video and handout (experimental).
- If the subject receives the intervention then the surgeon will play the intervention video in the office and review with the subject the educational handout. The handout will be given to the subject to take home which includes a QR code to the educational video.
If the subject is in the control group then the surgeon will play the standard of care (postoperative care) video in the office and review with the subject the postoperative care handout. The handout will be given to the subject to take home which includes a QR code to the video.
The following data collection procedures will occur with the subjects
The surgeon will collect data from all subjects at 1-2 weeks post surgery and data collection will include: age, gender, race, hand dominance, side injured, fracture severity, workers comp status, comorbidities, smoker status, work status, and household assistance. The hand surgeon will also collect data from the subjects on their current level of function, pain, and fear of moving their injured limb.
At 5-7 weeks the surgeon will collect data from all subjects on their current level of function, pain, fear of moving their injured limb. The surgeon will also measure finger motion.

研究组 & 干预措施
ADL/Postoperative Instruction
Participants in the experimental group will watch a video instructing them on early ADL participation after DRF fracture treated by ORIF and postoperative care. Participants in the experimental group will also receive a handout on ADL participation and postoperative care with a QR code to the video.
