These guidelines have been developed by researching the pathway of the patient with a DRF through the Emergency Department (ED) to the Fracture Clinic, to Surgery (if required) and then Rehabilitation. Definition of a GuidelineĬlinical practice guidelines are systematically developed statements to assist surgeon and patient decisions about appropriate health care for specific clinical circumstances. No external funding has been sought for the production of these guidelines. The production of Guidelines promoting optimum standards of care is key to the achievement of both the BOA’s and the BSSH’s charitable objectives. The GDG consists of consultant and trainee orthopaedic and trauma surgeons, a physician/orthogeriatrician, a general practitioner, extended scope practitioners, a nurse with plaster room experience and a patient representative.

The BSSH and the British Orthopaedic Society have collaborated to produce guidelines on the management of these fractures and the full document can be viewed here. There are many studies that have analysed specific sections of the management of DRFs but there is a need for a guide to summarise the treatment options for both specialist and non-specialist clinicians. The management of patients with distal radial fractures remains controversial. These guidelines have been produced in collaboration between the BOA and BSSH and complement the BOAST on DRFs.

This document collates the current evidence from English language journals that considers the management of patients with DRFs from presentation to rehabilitation with reference to Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs). There are many published studies analysing specific parameters of their treatment however there is a need for a guide to summarise the treatment options for both specialist and non-specialist clinicians. The treatment of patients with DRFs remains controversial. Adult DRFs are common injuries at any age but particularly in the older person where they may be associated with osteoporosis or osteopaenia and so are considered fragility fractures.
