PURPOSE: The purpose is to identify the impact of operation time length on complications for patients undergoing operative treatment of distal radius fracture. METHODS: Patients who underwent operative treatments for distal radius fractures were identified in a national database. Data collected include patient demographic information, comorbidities, and complications. RESULTS: Operation time was found to be an independent predictor for return to the operating room. Operation time was not found to be a predictor of other postoperative complications. CONCLUSION: Surgeons should work to shorten procedure duration whenever possible to minimize the risks that longer operative times can have on patient outcomes.
