Abstract
In a prospective randomised trial, the effects of an
intermittent compression hand pump vs. cryotherapy were
compared on reduction of postoperative hand swelling and
gain in finger movement after distal radius fractures.
Although intermittent compression as a physical method for
thromboprophylaxis and swelling reduction in orthopaedic
and trauma patients of the lower leg are established, a
prospective randomised trial for an objective evaluation of
the effects of intermittent compression in the upper extremity
has not been previously performed. Forty-three subjects
(63±33 years, 32 women, 11 men) with a unilateral distal
radius fracture treated with transarticular external fixation
were randomised into two treatment groups. In group A 21
patients were treated with cryotherapy. In group B 22
patients were treated with an intermittent compression hand
pump. Reduction in swelling of the treated hand and MP and
PIP joint movement were recorded with computerised
assessment software (EVAL Hand Evaluation System) in
comparison to the uninjured contralateral side. Reduction of
swelling in group A was not statistically significant (28.5%
of total swelling or 0.61 cm, SD 0.39,
