NCT ID: NCT05767827 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Brachial Plexus Block

Effect of Dexmedetomidine as Adjuvant to Ropivacaine for Brachial Plexus Block

Start date: February 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Brachial plexus block is used for upper limb surgery. Local anesthesia alone for brachial plexus block provides good operative conditions, but have short duration of postoperative analgesia. Hence, various adjuvants to local anaesthetic agents to prolong the duration of peripheral nerve, analgesia. However, results are either inconclusive or associated with side effects. The purpose of this study is to determine whether dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant to ropivacaine in brachial plexus block improve quality of block in terms of duration of post operative analgesia.

NCT ID: NCT05390463 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Upper Extremity Fracture

Feasibility of the PERformance Guided Fracture Rehablitation Method-protocol

PERFoRM
Start date: April 25, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Introduction: The scientific support for prescribed rehabilitation programs for upper extremity fractures is scarce, early mobilization has previously been shown to benefit the speed of recovery at the activity and participation level. Different (inter)national protocols for fracture rehabilitation of the upper extremity are not very specific with regard to the content of (para)medical treatment. The above underlines the need for a clearly defined and practically feasible treatment method. That is why the PERformance guided Fracture Rehablitation Method (PERForRM) protocol was drawn up, in which the treatment method is clearly described in a structured and protocol-based manner. The ultimate goal of the PERformance guided Fracture Rehablitation Method (PERFoRM) protocol is to optimize recovery, with maximum recovery of activity and participation level in upper extremity fractures. Expert opinion/empiricism was used during the writing of the protocol, partly arising from the earlier development of a protocol for the lower extremity. The approach according to the PERForRM protocol does not focus on the time-contingent load on the fracture, but rather on the functional use of the extremity, whereby the quality of movement is paramount. The PERForRM protocol proposes a "gold standard" in the form of milestones for describing the quality of movement of the upper extremity for (para)medics. Method: The aim of this pilot study is to test the manageability/feasibility of this protocol in clinical practice in patients with peri-articular fractures of the upper extremity (proximal humeral and distal radius fractures). It also describes the recovery in the area of the ICF domains and the complications that occurred when applying the PERForRM protocol. The inclusion period consists of 3 months, with a follow-up of 6 months. The manageability is measured by means of a questionnaire that is administered to the practitioners (2x during the study period). The data analysis will mainly have a descriptive character

NCT ID: NCT04764591 Completed - Regional Anesthesia Clinical Trials

Tissue Perfusion for Different Approaches of Brachial Plexus Block

Start date: January 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

To compare the two different approaches of infraclavicular brachial plexus block in forearm, wrist and hand surgery in terms of perfusion index, tissue oxygenation, sensory and motor block onset time and total effect time, first analgesic time, side effects and complications, and duration of block application.

NCT ID: NCT04748211 Completed - Clinical trials for Upper Extremity Fracture

Effect of Infraclavicular and Interscalen Block on Oxygenitaon of the Forearm

Start date: June 15, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

to research the oxygenitaon effects of infraclavicular and interscalene blocks on the forearm.

NCT ID: NCT03998995 Completed - Clinical trials for Upper Extremity Fracture

Virtual Reality Distraction From Procedural Pain in Children

Start date: December 13, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study explored the feasibility, acceptability and perceived the effectiveness of an Immersive Virtual Reality (IVR) 'game' in the rehabilitation of children with upper limb injuries. The objectives of the clinical trial were: - To qualitatively assess the perceptions of child and parent regarding the acceptability of the game and equipment, and their perceptions of its effectiveness in reducing pain and discomfort and facilitating movement, compared to usual physical therapy experiences. - To qualitatively assess physical therapy practitioners' perceptions of the effectiveness, usability, feasibility, and acceptability of VR in their clinical setting with this client group. Hypothesis: 1. IVR rehabilitation game as an intervention will be acceptable to child patients and their parents. 2. IVR rehabilitation game experience will show less procedural pain, discomfort, and difficulties to movement, compared to usual physical therapy experiences. 3. IVR rehabilitation game will demonstrate any perceived disadvantages as a therapeutic intervention, compared with usual rehabilitation care. 4. IVR rehabilitation game will demonstrate usability in the clinical setting during the rehabilitation of a small sample of children with varying ULIs.

NCT ID: NCT03842423 Completed - Clinical trials for Upper Extremity Fracture

Brachial Plexus Block in Children and Adolescents

Start date: January 1, 2002
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study involves a retrospective evaluation of brachial plexus anaesthesia in children and adolescents (patients under the age of 18) undergoing surgical procedures of the upper extremity following trauma. The investigators plan to recruit patients from our hospital patient database meeting our inclusion criteria. Observational period was defined between 1st of January 2002 and 31st of October 2018. Necessity to convert to general anaesthesia was defined as primary endpoint.

NCT ID: NCT00580866 Terminated - Elbow Fracture Clinical Trials

Progressive Splinting Status Post Elbow Fractures and Dislocations

JAS
Start date: September 2006
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to help determine if a static stretching brace in addition to physical therapy decreases the incidence of secondary operations, increases range of motion, and individual patient function.
