Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study determines if patients with buckle fractures of the distal radius and/or ulna treated with supportive care only demonstrate non-inferior outcomes in regard to pain control during healing, functional outcome at the wrist joint, and parental satisfaction, when compared with patients treated with the standard treatment regimen of 3-4 weeks in a short arm cast.
