ALT Wrist fractures are an extremely common injury, representing about 1 in 5 of all broken bones seen in UK hospitals. After breaking their wrist, people are often provided with basic advice by the person who is treating them about how to get their wrist working again. We would like to find out if giving patients more detailed exercise advice will improve how quickly and how well they recover from a broken wrist. This study will compare two different ways of helping people recover from a broken wrist. The information we gather will provide scientific evidence about the effects of receiving additional sessions with a therapist. As therapy appointments aren鈥檛 always convenient for patients, and it is important to make the best use of NHS time and resources, the WISE study aims to find out if the extra exercise advice helps with recovery.
