In younger children, bones have a remarkable ability to straighten themselves as they grow - even if the wrist looks a little bent at first.\n\nOther doctors preferred to do surgery. Under a general anaesthetic, the bone was straightened and then held in place with a cast and sometimes metal wires or a plate.\n\nBoth treatments were used across the UK, but no one had properly tested which was better. That meant doctors and families could not be sure which option was best. Generally, families wanted to avoid surgery if possible, but only if a plaster cast worked just as well.

Half of the children were given a cast, allowing their broken bone to straighten naturally, whilst the other half had surgery.\n\nThe study was a randomised trial, meaning each child had an equal chance of receiving either treatment – ensuring the results were fair and trustworthy.\n\nIn the year following the injury, children and families were asked on regular occasions about how well they could use their arm, how much it hurt, and what they thought of the appearance of their arm. They were also asked how much school they missed, how many hospital visits they had attended, and if there were any complications following their injury.",{"type":150,"sectionSettings":151,"settings":153,"text":7,"cards":159},"text_and_cards",{"textAlign":133,"sectionLabel":152},"Toolkit cards",{"headerLevel":154,"headerFontSize":155,"align":156,"maxCardsPerRow":157,"wholeClickable":6,"cardTheme":129,"cardBtnTheme":158},"3","4","center","2","primary-filled",[160,170],{"type":161,"title":162,"summary":163,"image":164,"link":167},"card_image_text","Results","Was surgery better than resting the wrist in a plaster cast?",{"url":165,"width":147,"height":166},"crafft-card-image 3@2x.png",320,{"title":168,"url":169,"target":6,"external":6},"Go to the Results","/results",{"type":161,"title":171,"summary":172,"image":173,"link":175},"Toolkit","Turn the CRAFFT findings into everyday practice.",{"url":174,"width":147,"height":166},"crafft-card-image 2@2x.png",{"url":176,"title":177},"/toolkit","Go to the Toolkit","content:pages:index.en.json","pages/index.en.json","pages/index.en",1787070369033]
