Surgery or a cast? new study aims to find best fix for finger nerve damage

NCT ID NCT05536609

Summary

This study aims to find the best way to treat nerve injuries in the fingers. Researchers will randomly assign 166 adults with a cut finger nerve to either have surgery to stitch the nerve or to wear a cast without surgery. The main goal is to see which treatment better restores the sense of touch in the finger after one year, while also measuring hand function, pain, and recovery time.
