Brief summary

To study the effects of ulnar styloid and sigmoid notch fractures on postoperative wrist function in patients with distal radius fracture

Detailed description

Patients treated for distal radius fracture in the Department of Orthopedic Trauma at the People's Hospital of Peking University will be selected for outpatient follow-up. Evaluation was based on Sartiento's modification of the Gartland and Werley score. Efficacy was assessed with wrist pain as the focus.The follow-up time is one year after the operation。

Interventions

The volar approach was used for open reduction and internal fixation of distal radius fractures

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Sartiento's modification of the Gartland and Werley score1 year after surgerySartiento's modification of the Gartland and Werley score included evaluation of residual deformity, subjective evaluation of pain, objective evaluation of range of wrist motion and grip strength, and evaluation of complications of arthritis, neurological symptoms, and finger dysfunction. Efficacy was judged as excellent, good, fair, or poor, and the sum of the above scores was calculated (excellent, 0-2 points; good, 3-8 points; fair, 9-20 points; and poor, ≥21 points)

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
ulnar wrist pain(VAS score)1 year after surgeryEvaluation of ulnar wrist pain based on VAS score.Visual Analogue Scale/Score:A cross line of 10 cm on the paper, 0 at one end of the horizontal line, is painless; the other end is 10, indicating a sharp pain; the middle part indicates a different degree of pain.

Other

MeasureTime frameDescription
Union rate of ulnar styloid fracture1 year after surgeryUnion rate of ulnar styloid fracture:The fracture line of the ulnar styloid process disappeared, the fracture healed well, there was no obvious pain in the wrist and no abnormal activity.
