Summary

This study will compare three types of anesthesia for people having ankle surgery: total intravenous anesthesia with a nerve block, general anesthesia with a nerve block, and spinal anesthesia. The goal is to see which method allows patients to recover and leave the hospital the quickest. About 200 adults will take part across multiple hospitals.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Anesthesia (total intravenous, balanced general, or spinal)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could identify the best anesthesia method for ankle surgery, helping patients recover faster and go home sooner.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage trial not yet recruiting, so results are uncertain. The findings may not apply to all patients or surgeries.
