Achtergrond van het onderzoek
DRUJ instability and ulnar wrist pain is common after distal radius fractures. Radiological riskfactors are identified but influence on outcome is still a matter of debate. Furthermore best modality to evaluate DRUJ instability has to be confirmed. In our study we would like to evaluate radiological riskfactors for DRUJ instabiltiy comparing clinical outcome and evaluate three radiological modalities for predictive value of DRUJ instability.
Doel van het onderzoek
The null hypothesis is tested that radiological risk-factors for DRUJ instability may account for clinical DRUJ instability in patients after a consolidated distal radius fracture.
Onderzoeksopzet
One visit 1 to 2 years after distal radius fracture.
Onderzoeksproduct en/of interventie
