Protocol summary

Study aim
Comparison of manual reduction method and modern stretching method in the success rate of distal radius fracture reduction and its outcome
Design
In this clinical trial (without blindness), 30 patients with distal radius fractures , using the Excel Rand function will be randomly assigned to two parallel groups of 15 people . The first group will be performed by traditional method, reduction by hand and the second group by new method under fluoroscopic instruments.
Settings and conduct
This study will be performed on patients with distal radius fractures referred to the orthopedic clinic of Besat hospital in Hamadan . In order to repair the fracture, two traditional methods and the new method will be used. In both groups, after fracture reduction, casting is performed and then patients, one week and five weeks after treatment, will refereed to clinic for care and evaluation of treatment outcome.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Participants included patients over 16 years of age with distal radius fractures who consented to participate in the study. Patients with joint involvement, open fractures and soft tissue damage will not be eligible for the study.
Intervention groups
The first group of distal radius fractures, in the traditional way, will be subjected to manual reduction. In this method, the physician's assistant pulls the wrist with great force and then bends it at an angle of 15 degrees. The surgeon simultaneously repair the fracture. In the new method, using the patient's elbows and fingers, it is hung from the bed and attached to the weight. Then, under fluoroscopy, the surgeon places the injured part in the proper direction.
Main outcome variables
The main consequence of improving the distal radius fracture, improving hand function, reducing pain at the fracture site

Randomization description
30 samples with computer software will be randomly coded in two groups I and C and the codes will be entered on the raw checklists. Upon referral of a qualified patient, one of the checklists will be randomly selected. If the selected code is I, the Fracture reduction will be with instrument and if it is C, it manual Fracture reduction will be done.
