Interventions

DRUG

Lidocaine

Patients will receive 20 ml of 1% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine (buffered 10:1 with 8.4% sodium bicarbonate). Thirty minutes before carpal tunnel release surgery, 10 mL will be injected subcutaneously, and 10 mL will be injected into the carpal tunnel.

DRUG

Bupivacain

Bupivacaine: Patients will receive 10 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine + 10 ml of 1% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine (buffered 10:1 with 8.4% sodium bicarbonate).
