Brief Summary

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

This trial aims to develop and test the efficacy of a digital media based physical therapy protocol on patients after surgical fixation and non-operative treatment of distal radius fractures.It is hypothesized that there will not be a difference in outcomes for patients after surgical fixation of distal radius fractures with traditional physical therapy and digital media based therapy

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Digital Media Therapy

The digital media based group will receive a modified post immobilization protocol. This will include giving the patients a Universal Serial Bus (USB) drive loaded with a 12 week physical therapy protocol presented in digital form with videos and graphical representations of exercises to be done. They will also have access to the videos and multimedia on the Oregon Health \& Science University website.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Digital Media Based Physical Therapy

Intervention Type OTHER

This intervention is a modified post immobilization protocol. This will include giving the patients a USB drive loaded with a 12 week therapy protocol presented in digital form with videos and graphical representations of exercises to be done. They will also have access to the videos and multimedia on the Oregon Health \& Science University website.

Traditional Therapy

The traditional group will have clinic-based physical therapy protocol.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Traditional Physical Therapy

Intervention Type OTHER

This intervention is a 12 week therapist supervised clinic-based therapy protocol.

Eligibility Criteria

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

Inclusion Criteria

* Patients undergoing operative treatment for distal radius fractures.

Exclusion Criteria

* Poly-trauma patients with significant previous diagnosis of dementia, previous traumatic brain injury, or other reason for significant altered mental status that would interfere with their participation in therapist directed or digital based therapy will be excluded.
* Patients who present to Oregon Health \& Science University for physical therapy who will be treated by a physician at another non Oregon Health \& Science University facility will be excluded.
* Patients who are not proficient in the English language will be excluded.
