Study Summary
The goal of this study is to determine which initial method of immobilization for humeral shaft fractures in the emergency room maximizes patient comfort. The two methods of initial management for humeral shaft fractures are sarmiento bracing (pre-fabricated fracture brace) and coaptation splinting. In this study, the team will compare patient related outcomes and comfort for each method of initial management of humeral shaft fractures. Participant pain, narcotic usage, and function will be tracked over a 2 week period to see which method of immobilization is preferred.
Primary Outcome
The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) is a 10 cm line with anchor statements on the left (no pain) and on the right (extreme pain). The patient is asked to mark their current pain level on the line. The total range of score is 0 (no pain) to 10 (unbearable pain); the higher the pain, the greater the amount of pain.
Interventions
- PROCEDURE Webril Padded Plaster Splint
- PROCEDURE Pre-Fabricated Fracture Brace
