Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to compare outcomes between two immobilization methods for pediatric proximal half both bone forearm fractures.
Detailed Description:
After being informed of the study including potential risks and benefits, all patients giving assent and guardian/parents consent who meet eligibility will undergo randomization of the casting technique used (elbow extension or elbow flexion casting). Randomization will occur using a random umber generator. Even numbers generated will result in an extension cast and odd numbers generated will result in a flexion cast.
The patients will be followed in clinic with an examination and x-rays at 2, 3, 5, and 8 weeks after casting to evaluate alignment of the fracture maintained by each cast. The two cohorts will be compared at the end of the study to determine which casting technique is the superior immobilization for pediatric proximal half both bone forearm fractures.
