简要总结
The aim is to evaluate the success of reduction procedures and pain palliation in patients with forearm fractures undergoing reduction under procedural sedation-analgesia (PSA) and ultrasound (US)-guided infraclavicular nerve block (ICB) in the emergency department.
详细描述
Forearm fractures are among the most frequent reasons for adults to visit the emergency department. These fractures cause significant pain both due to the fracture itself and during the reduction process. Pain management in emergency departments (ED) is crucial. Therefore, multimodal approaches are available to reduce or eliminate pain during the reduction process. The aim of this study is to evaluate the success and pain palliation of the reduction process with procedural sedation-analgesia (PSA) and with reduction under ultrasound (US)-guided infraclavicular nerve block (ICB) in patients with forearm fractures. The secondary aim is to compare patient comfort, physician comfort, side effects, length of stay in the emergency department, and the need for painkillers after discharge between these two procedures, and to identify the most suitable method. This study aims to contribute to practical applications in order to provide optimal pain control in patients with forearm fractures in emergency departments.
Patients' pain levels at arrival, pre-reduction procedure, and post-reduction procedure will be recorded using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst imaginable pain).The success of the reduction procedure, whether further reduction attempts were necessary, and findings from post-reduction control X-rays (radial height, radial tilt, and volar tilt) will be noted and evaluated by orthopedic physicians.

结局指标
主要结局
Evaluation of patients' pain levels according to the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) after the applied protocols.
时间窗: 1. Pain level at the 1. minute upon presentation to the emergency room. 2. Pain level after the implementation of the protocols, i.e. 1 hour later. 3. Pain level 24 hours after the procedure.
Pain levels at arrival, pre-reduction procedure, and post-reduction procedure will be recorded using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst imaginable pain).
Success of reduction following the applied protocols.
时间窗: An x-ray will be taken before the reduction process, i.e. at 10 minutes. An x-ray will be taken at 1 hour after the reduction process.
The success of the reduction procedure, whether further reduction attempts were necessary, and findings from post-reduction control X-rays (radial height, radial tilt, and volar tilt) will be noted and evaluated by orthopedic physicians.
Evaluation of the need for additional rescue treatments during the procedure.
时间窗: Rescue analgesia will be administered if NRS is above 5 fifteen minutes after the protocols are applied.
If NRS is above 5, as first-line rescue analgesia, tramadol 50 or 100 mg IV diluted in 100 mL normal saline will be administered over 15 minutes. If pain persists above NRS 5, second-line treatment with 50 mcg fentanyl diluted in 100 mL normal saline will be administered over 15 minutes.
次要结局
- Patient and practitioner satisfaction with the reduction procedure.(The satisfaction survey for both the patient and the reduction practitioner will be conducted 30 minutes after the reduction procedure.)
