Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The aim of this study is to analyze the clinical and radiological outcomes of patients with a proximal pole fracture of the scaphoid
Primary null hypothesis:
There are no factors associated with nonunion of a proximal pole fracture of the scaphoid.
Secondary null hypothesis:
Patients with an acute proximal pole fracture of the scaphoid have QuickDASH (Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand) scores at or above the population norm (a score of 13 in the Norway and 10.9 in the United States), 2 to 6 months after injury.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
