Comparison of Clinical Outcomes of Distal Radius Fractures Treated Surgically With WALANT and Peripheral Nerve Block

NCT05832021 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 48

Last updated 2023-05-01

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

WALANT anesthesia technique has been frequently preferred in hand and upper extremity surgery in recent years. WALANT technique; It stands out with its advantages such as lack of pre-operative anesthesia preparation process, reduction in test and examination requests, reduction in unnecessary hospitalizations and high patient satisfaction. There are studies with a high level of evidence showing that the WALANT technique has such advantages in soft tissue and smallmedium bone fracture surgery. In large bone fractures (radius, etc.), surgical treatment is performed with the WALANT technique and positive results have been reported. Although there is a study comparing WALANT and general anesthesia in the surgical treatment of distal radius fractures, there is no study comparing the peripheral nerve block technique.
