No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if there is any difference with regard to complication rates for performing surgery on an operating room (OR) table vs performing surgery on a stretcher with a hand table. The OR table and the stretcher with a hand table are the two types of operative surfaces the investigators will compare. The aim of this study is to compare surgeries of finger, hand, wrist, forearm, and elbow. The investigators will conduct the research at two outpatient surgery centers and an inpatient hospital center to see if operating room surface and time of surgery has any effect on complications after surgery. The investigators also will compare the costs of the two types of operative surfaces for the surgery.
