The treatment being investigated is a medication called Iloprost, which is used in a concentrated form for infusion. The purpose of the study is to determine the safety of applying Iloprost directly to the fracture site during surgery to help improve bone healing.

Participants in the study will receive either the Iloprost treatment or a placebo. The study will monitor the healing process of the bone and assess any potential side effects or reactions to the treatment. The trial will also evaluate the overall quality of life, pain levels, and the function of the arm and shoulder after treatment.

The study will take place over a period of time, with regular follow-ups to check on the progress of bone healing and to ensure the safety of the treatment. The goal is to gather information that could lead to better treatment options for individuals with upper arm bone fractures in the future.

]]> Comparison of Lidocaine and Ropivacaine in Ultrasound-Guided Nerve Block for Patients with Wrist Fractures Requiring Closed Reduction https://clinicaltrials.eu/trial/study-on-lidocaine-epinephrine-and-ropivacaine-for-pain-relief-in-patients-with-wrist-fractures-needing-immediate-treatment/ Wed, 29 Apr 2026 14:30:30 +0000 https://clinicaltrials.eu/trial/study-on-lidocaine-epinephrine-and-ropivacaine-for-pain-relief-in-patients-with-wrist-fractures-needing-immediate-treatment/ This study focuses on treating patients with distal radius fractures (broken wrist bones) that require closed reduction (a procedure to realign the broken bones without surgery). The study compares two different local anesthetic medications: Ropivacaine and Lidocaine with epinephrine, which are drugs used to block pain and relax muscles in the affected area.

The purpose of this research is to evaluate how well these medications work when given through a nerve block called lateral infraclavicular brachial plexus block. This is an injection technique where medication is delivered near the nerves in the shoulder area using ultrasound guidance to help control pain during the bone realignment procedure.

During the study, participants will receive one of these pain-blocking medications through an injection. The medications will be given in different strengths but in the same amount of liquid. The effectiveness of the nerve block will be checked 45 minutes after the injection is given, before proceeding with the bone realignment and casting procedure.
