The investigators will compare post-reduction radiologic outcomes between the experimental group (ultrasound guided closed forearm fracture reduction) and control group (standard of care blinded closed forearm fracture reduction) to determine if there is a difference in the number of adequate reductions between groups.\n\nSecondary objectives include comparing provider satisfaction with the reduction procedure, number of patients requiring repeat reductions, time for reduction, number of patients requiring operative repair after reduction, with the reduction procedure and comparison between post-reduction ultrasound and x-ray interpretation.', 'detailedDescription': "This will be a prospective randomized, controlled, single blinded study that will take place at the Children's Hospital at Montefiore (CHAM) in the Pediatric Emergency Department (PED). Patients who present to the PED, are confirmed to have a forearm fracture requiring closed reduction in the PED and meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be eligible for the study. The decision to perform a closed reduction procedure in the PED will be made by the consulting orthopedic surgeon who will perform the procedure. All eligible patients' pain will be reassessed and managed as necessary as per standard of care The eligible patient or parent/guardian will be approached by the treating physician or consulting orthopedic resident for written consent. Written assent will be obtained from minors older than 7 years of age. After enrollment into the study, patients will be randomized to either the experimental group (ultrasound guided fracture reduction) or control group (standard of care forearm fracture reduction without real-time imaging). Allocation of patients to intervention and control arms will be accomplished by a computer-generated permuted block randomization scheme.\n\nConsulting orthopedic residents will be trained to perform musculoskeletal sonography for this study and will be considered study-trained physicians. All patients will undergo procedural sedation and/or pain management for closed reduction as per standard of care in the PED. The medication used for sedation and/or pain will be determined by the treating Pediatric Emergency Medicine (PEM) physician. Study patients that are randomized to the ultrasound guided group will undergo a point-of-care ultrasound, performed by a study trained physician using a Sonosite Edge ultrasound machine with an L38 linear 10-5 Megahertz (MHz) transducer probe.\n\nPrior to the reduction procedure in patients randomized to the experimental group, ultrasound images of the fracture site will be obtained and the maximum degree of displacement will be measured. Both longitudinal and transverse views of the injured area will be obtained. The trained physician will then perform real-time ultrasound imaging as needed during the closed reduction procedure. Once the orthopedic resident obtains optimal alignment, and prior to casting, a post-reduction ultrasound image will be obtained and the angle of displacement will again be measured. All ultrasounds performed prior to and after the reduction will be recorded, and the images obtained will include video clips of the ultrasound as well as a saved still picture of the best image of the suspected fracture site. The study-trained physician who performed the ultrasound will then record his/her findings on the data collection form immediately after the procedure and prior to reviewing plain radiographs.\n\nIn general, the majority of reduction procedures performed in the PED are done without the use of any real time imaging, some orthopedic surgery residents employ the use of the c-arm (fluoroscopy) and/or a portable x-ray machine during the reduction procedure. At his/her discretion, the orthopedic resident may use either of these modalities in both the ultrasound and control group as per standard of care in the PED. The use of these modalities will be recorded.\n\nAfter the reduction procedure in the ultrasound group and prior to reviewing the post reduction x-ray, the orthopedic resident will complete a brief questionnaire. Patients in both groups will then undergo a post-reduction x-ray. Based on the degree of displacement on the x-ray, the orthopedic surgeon will determine whether the patient needs a repeat reduction, as per routine standard of care. If a repeat reduction is required, the treating physician can choose to use ultrasound at his/her discretion. The angle of displacement will be measured on the post-reduction x-ray by an orthopedic surgeon. Additionally, the angle of displacement measured on the post-reduction ultrasound will be measured and compared to the angle of displacement on the post-reduction x-ray. An expert sonographer will review cases where the ultrasound and x-ray results do not correlate."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '21 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients who present to the Pediatric Emergency Department (PED) with a confirmed displaced forearm fracture that will require reduction by orthopedic surgery in the PED will be eligible for inclusion in this study.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
