SUMMARY:

The use of 3D orthoses in the treatment of fractures is a rising practice in the healthcare field, bringing significant innovations to orthopedic care. This study proposes a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 3D orthoses compared to other treatment options for distal radius fractures. Based on a comprehensive search in electronic databases such as MEDLINE, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and others, studies evaluating the use of 3D orthoses in fracture treatment will be included, published in English, Portuguese, Spanish, or French. Inclusion criteria encompass studies reporting outcomes related to the feasibility and safety of 3D orthoses, such as consolidation rate, consolidation time, immobilization time, pain, quality of life, and complications. Additionally, studies using a control group with other treatment options, such as plaster casts, conventional orthoses, or surgery, will be considered. Results will be analyzed and synthesized considering the heterogeneity of the included studies in terms of types of 3D orthoses, types of fractures, treatment protocols, and reported outcomes. It is expected that this systematic review will provide robust evidence on the feasibility and safety of using 3D orthoses in fracture treatment, contributing to a better understanding of available treatment options and guiding clinical practice. Potential limitations, such as bias risk and lack of standardization in treatment protocols, will be discussed to contextualize the results and provide insights for future research in this area.
