NCT ID NCT01323075
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This completed study looked at how long nerve blocks last in people with kidney failure or diabetes compared to those without these conditions. Researchers gave 120 patients a truncal block during hand or wrist surgery and measured when sensation returned. The goal was to see if metabolic diseases affect nerve block recovery time.
