About This Forearm Fractures (Both Bone Forearm Fractures, Isolated Ulnar Shaft, Isolated Radial Shaft) Study in Nashville

The goal of this randomized clinical study is to understand the effect of activity on the re-displacement of pediatric forearm fractures in patients ages 8-18 years old excluding those with known metabolic bone disease or obvious refracture. The main questions the study aims to answer are: Does increased activity lead to increased re-displacement rates during the treatment of pediatric forearm fractures? Are there complications associated with increased levels of activity during the treatment of pediatric forearm fractures (skin irritation, need for re-casting, operation)? Do activity restrictions provided for pediatric forearm fractures influence patient activity levels? Participants will be randomized into activity-restricted vs activity-limited (no contact sports). Some patients will be provided an ActiGraph Activity tracker to monitor patient activity. Every patient will complete a validated activity survey (PAQ) to assess activity at each follow-up appointment. Activity data and any complications will be recorded from time of initial presentation to cast removal.
