Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Sugartong Splint
|
A splint made of 8-10 layers of plaster rolled into a single long sheet which begins at the distal volar crease of the hand and traverses around the elbow and stops at the dorsal metacarpal heads.
The skin is protected with cotton cast padding (webril) and the splint is held in place with ace bandages
|
Experimental: Clam Shell Splint
|
A 2-part splint made of 8-10 layers of plaster.
The piece traverses from the distal volar crease of the hand to the volar aspect of the proximal forearm.
The second piece runs along the dorsal aspect of forearm from metacarpal heads to proximal forearm.
The elbow is left free.
In the same fashion as the sugar tong splint, the skin is protected with cotton cast padding (webril) and held in place with ace wrap

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Displacement of fracture, measured by radial height
Time Frame: 1 Week
|
>2 mm of radial height lost from immediate post-reduction radiographs A t-test will be performed with a p value < 0.05 to determine significance in loss of reduction A t-test will also be performed comparing individual parameters between the 2 splinting methods |
1 Week
|
Displacement of fracture, measured by volar tilt
Time Frame: 1 Week
|
> 5 degrees of radial inclination lost from immediate post-reduction radiographs A t-test will be performed with a p value < 0.05 to determine significance in loss of reduction A t-test will also be performed comparing individual parameters between the 2 splinting methods |

Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder,and Hand (DASH) outcome score
Time Frame: 1 Week
|
30-item questionnaire that looks at the ability of a patient to perform certain upper extremity activities.
This questionnaire is a self-report questionnaire that patients can rate difficulty and interference with daily life on a 5 point Likert scale.
