CAST POSITION TRIAL (2016)
Cast position trial is a pragmatic NITEP trial; a randomized, multicenter trial that compares the two commonly used cast immobilization positions of distal radius fracture; volar-flexion ulnar-deviation (“Cotton-Loder”) and functional cast position in primarily successfully reduced, dorsally displaced DRFs in patients aged 65 and older.

DeltaCon (2020)
