You may be eligible if
1. Patients who are 18 years of age or older. This age range accounts for 60% of all distal radius fractures seen at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.
2. Patients who have sustained a low or high energy distal radius fracture that involves the metaphysis and requires open reduction internal fixation using volar plating.
3. English speaking due to feasibility of employing study personnel to deliver and assess study intervention.
1. Patients who are 18 years of age or older.
2. Patients who have no history of fracture or family history of pathologic fracture
3. English speaking due to feasibility of employing study personnel to deliver and assess study intervention.

2. Patients who have sustained a low or high energy distal radius fracture that requires nonoperative treatment
3. English speaking due to feasibility of employing study personnel to deliver and assess study intervention.
