Hematoma Block as an Adjunct to Procedural Sedation for Forearm Fracture Reduction

Forearm Fracture Clinical Trial

Official title:
Hematoma Blocks in Forearm Fractures: An Effective Adjunct to Procedural Sedation?

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of our study is to determine if the use of a hematoma block together with intravenous sedation and analgesia is an effective means of managing forearm fractures in the Emergency Department. To determine this, we have designed a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial of hematoma block versus saline for the manipulation of forearm fractures under conscious sedation with ketamine and midazolam. Our hypotheses are two-fold: First, the use of a hematoma block together with conscious sedation will allow for improved pain control. Second, the use of a hematoma block together with conscious sedation will allow us to use less sedation, therefore promoting faster recovery from sedation and more efficient patient turnover in the Emergency Department.
