Clinical Trial: How the Brain and Body Recover After a Wrist Fracture

U.S., Aug. 21 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07777081) titled 'How the Brain and Body Recover After a Wrist Fracture' on Aug. 17.

Brief Summary: What is the problem? A wrist fracture is a common injury, affecting about 100,000 people in the UK each year. While most people recover well, a significant minority, between 10% and 20%, develop persistent pain and disability that lasts long after the bone has healed. In some cases this leads to a severe chronic pain condition called Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS). Currently we cannot easily predict who will recover and who may not, making it challenging to provide early targeted support.
