Summary

Background: There are three methods for procedural sedation in upper extremity traumas; systemic, regional and local anesthesia. There is controversy in the literature regarding the method of choice for this purpose.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare conscious sedation and Bier's block methods for pain reduction in upper extremity trauma patients.

Patients and Methods: This was a randomized clinical trial. Patients were randomly allocated to either the Bier's block or the conscious sedation group. Pain reduction was assessed by a numerical rating scale; patients, surgeons and physicians responsible for analgesia satisfaction were assessed using a five-point Likert scale.

In this study, we aimed to compare the effectiveness, complications, duration, hemodynamic stability and patient and physician satisfaction between systemic analgesia and Bier's block method performed at the emergency department.

Conditions

  • Distal Radius Fracture

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Intravenous Regional Anesthesia

in this research patients will receive intravenous regional anesthesia as infusion of mini dose (that is 1.5 mg/kg ) lidocaine 0.5% and immediately after procedure their torniquettes (A.T.S. 2000, Zimmer, Inc., Bloomfield, CN) will be deflated (hence named Rapid MiniBier's block). the pain score will be assessed by NRS system before during and after the procedure.

DRUG

Systemic Analgesia

in this group the patients will receive ketamine 1-2 mg/kg IV slow ( Bioniche,Ireland Ketamine Hydrochloride 500mg/10cc)and titrated to effect. again here the pain score will be assessed before procedure and after the procedure every 5 minutes until 30 minutes by NRS ( Numerical Rating Score)
