No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the influence of elbow position on achieving forearm supination and pronation and wrist ROM postoperatively. It is anticipated the results will show recovery of functional motion in a shorter period of time (27 days average). As for the secondary objective of the study, it is anticipated there will be limited pain and cost-containment. These data elements will serve as secondary factors to evaluate.
