Assessing Results After Distal Radius Fracture Treatment

Abstract

The Green and O'Brien scoring system correlated most strongly with the DASH score. Radiological scoring (reflecting anatomical deformity) was not significantly correlated with functional outcome. While subjective parameters "pain" and "function" are influenced by psychosocial factors and thus highly variable, it is paramount to include subjective tools in outcome assessment in future studies on wrist fractures.
