The following is a summary of the recommendations in the AAOS’ clinical practice guideline, The Treatment of Distal Radius Fractures. The scope of this guideline is specifically limited to acute distal radius fractures. This summary does not contain rationales that explain how and why these recommendations were developed nor does it contain the evidence supporting these recommendations. All readers of this summary are strongly urged to consult the full guideline and evidence report for this information. We are confident that those who read the full guideline and evidence report will see that the recommendations were developed using systematic evidence-based processes designed to combat bias, enhance transparency, and promote reproducibility.
