Association Between Hand-Eye Coordination and Handgrip Strength in Children Post-Healing of DRGF

The study investigates whether hand-eye coordination is related to handgrip strength in children (aged 5-12 years) after they have healed from distal radius greenstick fractures. This is important because both strength and coordination are crucial for a child's full functional recovery after such fractures.
