6 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to determine if a statistical significance exists between outcomes of patients treated for dorsal wrist ganglion cyst with excision alone versus excision and the addition of a partial wrist denervation by resecting the common terminal sensory branch of the PIN (posterior interosseus nerve). Our hypothesis is that addition of PIN improves outcome after dorsal wrist ganglion excision as indicated by post-operative pain, function, ability to perform activities of daily living, and physical exam findings.
Patients with common hand conditions will be randomized to one of two groups- one will receive a question prompt list, the other will receive a list of 3 questions
Patients will be asked to use a mobile phone app to conduct their hand therapy after having hand surgery.
This study is about pain control and medication following outpatient soft-tissue hand surgery. We hope to learn if ibuprofen and acetaminophen will achieve similar pain relief and satisfaction when compared with oxycodone alone.
The purpose of this research study is to find out which combination of pain medications following surgery work the best and result in the fewest side effects.
This study aims to assess the relationship between overall satisfaction with treatment in a group of randomized patients undergoing elective hand surgery using either absorbable (4-0 Chromic) or non-absorbable (5-0 Nylon) sutures. The investigators will also assess factors associated with wound concerns, pain intensity, magnitude of limitations, and physical function within one month of surgery.
