Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Participants in the remote arm will complete follow-up assessments through secure online surveys, including PROMIS Upper Extremity, PROMIS-29, APEX, and ICHOM questionnaires. Grip strength will be measured using a dynamometer, and wrist range of motion will be evaluated through patient-submitted videos analyzed by the research team. Patients in the in-person arm will undergo identical assessments during routine clinic visits.
The trial is designed as a non-inferiority study powered to determine whether remote follow-up achieves comparable recovery outcomes to in-person care while potentially improving access, satisfaction, and efficiency. Safety monitoring will include review of all adverse events and complications, with predefined criteria for pausing or modifying the protocol if unexpected risks arise

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Remote Monitoring Follow-Up
Participants in this arm will complete postoperative follow-up through a digital health platform. At 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery, they will complete electronic PROMs , measure grip strength using a dynamometer, and submit short wrist range-of-motion videos for remote evaluation. Participants will be instructed to contact the clinical team if any concerns arise.
Remote Monitoring Follow-Up
Participants will complete postoperative assessments through a secure, HIPAA-compliant digital health platform.
In-Person Standard Follow-Up
Participants in this arm will attend routine postoperative clinic visits at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months, following standard of care for distal radius fracture management. At each visit, PROMs will be completed, and grip strength and range of motion will be measured by the clinical team. Care decisions and management will follow institutional standards for in-person postoperative evaluation
Standard In-Person Follow-Up
Participants will attend routine in-person postoperative clinic visits.
