Flare reaction, characterized by excessive erythema, stiffness, and edema postoperatively, can lead to complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) when pain is present. This study compares flare and CRPS incidence following hand surgeries performed under regional anesthesia with axillary block (RAAB) and WALANT (Wide-Awake Local Anesthesia No Tourniquet).
This two-center prospective study included patients undergoing Dupuytren contracture (DC), DeQuervain tenosynovitis (DQS), carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), and trigger finger (TF) surgeries under RAAB or WALANT. Diagnostic criteria for flare and CRPS (pain, weakness, scar issues, erythema, and swelling) were assessed, and comorbidities were noted. The incidence of flare reactions and CRPS was compared for RAAB and WALANT.

| Surgery for Dupuytren contracture (DC), DeQuervain tenosynovitis (DQS), carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), or trigger finger (TF) | Procedure | All of the patients were operated for Dupuytren contracture (DC), DeQuervain tenosynovitis (DQS), carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), or trigger finger (TF). The study is two center study, one center has the routine of RAAB (regional anesthesia with axillary block) and the other has the routine of WALANT (wide awake local anesthesia no tourniquet) for the mentioned surgeries. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| CRPS severity score (CSS) | CRPS: Complex regional pain sydrome The CRPS Severity Score is a composite measure derived from multiple clinical findings, summed to provide a single score ranging from 0 to 16. The ccore is based on four major clinical domains, with each domain contributing 0 to 4 points, leading to a total possible score of 16 points.
