Brief Summary:
The goal of this study is to determine if applying a rigid splint helps to reduce pain following operative fixation of upper extremity fractures. Orthopedic trauma surgeons currently vary in their application of rigid post-operative splints versus soft dressings after certain surgical procedures based on personal preference. In this study, 100 patients undergoing operative fixation of isolated both bone forearm, radial head, olecranon, distal humerus, or humeral shaft fractures will either receive a splint or soft dressing post-operatively. Their pain, medication usage and function will be tracked over the 2- week postoperative period to see if splinting has any impact on outcomes.
