Sponsor's own description

Rehabilitation following wrist fractures often includes exercising flexion-extension. However, during daily functions, our wrist moves through an oblique plane, named the Dart Throwing Motion (DTM) plane. This plane might be a more stable plane in cases of wrist injuries, since the proximal carpal row remains relatively immobile. However, rehabilitation programs that incorporate exercising in the DTM plane have yet to be explored. The researchers aimed to evaluate the rehabilitation outcomes following treatment in the DTM plane compared with outcomes following treatment in the sagittal plane after Distal Radius Fracture (DRFs). Twenty four subjects following internal fixation of DRFs were randomly assigned into a research group . The range of motion, pain levels and functional tests were measured before and after an intervention of 12 treatment sessions. The control group activated the wrist in the sagittal plane while the research group activated the wrist in the DTM plane, via a DTM orthosis.
