Buddy taping after reduction of displaced extra-articular phalangeal finger fractures in children: a randomized controlled trial.
In this randomized controlled trial, we assessed the non-inferiority of buddy taping to splinting after reduction of displaced extra-articular proximal and middle phalangeal finger fractures in children. The primary outcome was the rate of secondary fracture displacements; the secondary outcomes were patient comfort, analgesic efficacy and total range of active motion 6 months after injury. Eighty-one patients participated: 43 with taping and 38 with splinting. Secondary displacement occurred in eight patients: five in the splinting group and three in the taping group. Risk difference was below the predefined non-inferiority of 10%. Patient comfort was significantly higher in the taping group, with no group differences for other parameters. Our previous study recommended taping for undisplaced finger fractures in children. With the current data, we recommend taping these finger fractures irrespective of displacement or need for reduction. We are encouraged to propose taping as an alternative to splinting for increased patient comfort, lower cost, and shorter application time.Level of evidence: I.
