Plain-language summary

Distal radius fracture is the most common upper extremity fracture with peak incidence among older women after the fifth decade of life. Proprioception is one constituent of a complex Sensory motor control process. Proprioception requires the reception and central integration of incoming afferent signals. Although various sensory and motor deficits have been correlated with significant functional impairment after wrist trauma, limited research exists on the effects of proprioception and multi sensory training after distal radius fracture.
