- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>The primary objectives of this study are to investigate whether cubital nerve<br /><br>blockage leads to a decrease in pain compared to control patients. This will be<br /><br>measured through a raw pain intensity difference (PID) using visual analogue<br /><br>pain score after fracture reduction. </p><br>
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>The secondary parameters of this study includes pain measured after the<br /><br>analgesia procedure, after fracture reduction, 15 and 30 minutes after<br /><br>reduction, need for re-reduction, secondary loss of reduction measured on plain<br /><br>radiographs. 1,4 and 12 weeks after fracture reduction, the patient will visit<br /><br>the outpatient clinic (standard care). </p><br>
