Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the difference between the use of paper- versus application-based (smartphone application) exercises in the rehabilitation of intra-articular fractures of the distal radius at the Cantonal Hospital of Fribourg, Switzerland.

The operation itself will proceed as usual. However, the rehabilitation will be aided by exercises based either on a paper support or on a digital application (smartphone application), in addition to follow-up by a hand therapist.

The aim is to determine which support provides the best improvement in wrist mobility and function, and to speed up the return to work.
