Twenty nine patients with distal radius fractures treated with various modalities including LCP and Kwire fixation with below elbow cast from September 2018 to May 2019 prospectively, with follow up period of 6 months. Functional outcome of each patient was assessed based on DASH score and Radiological score was assessed using Radiological score at 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months. The outcome of this study states that there is positive correlation exists between radiological and functional outcomes. Positive correlation exists with individual radiological parameters and functional outcomes, although the strength of correlation was poor. Among the radiological parameters, Ulnar Variance showed the greatest correlation while the Radial Inclination was the least correlated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
