NCT ID NCT06040840
First seen Apr 20, 2026 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tested if a simpler numbing method called WALANT (injecting numbing medicine directly into the wrist) works as well as a standard arm block for carpal tunnel release surgery. 130 adults having endoscopic carpal tunnel release took part. The main goal was to see if WALANT could avoid the need for extra pain medicine or sedation during surgery, while also looking at surgery time and recovery speed.
