Suture method comparison for injured finger nerves
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study compares two surgical techniques to repair an injured nerve in the finger. It aims to improve how well sensation comes back after a traumatic digital nerve injury.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have an isolated traumatic nerve injury in finger 2, 3, 4, or 5 (not thumb).
- You were 20 years or older at the time of injury.
- The injury is on the palm-side (volar) of the finger.
- You have new or changing loss of feeling over the injured area right after the injury.
- The injury was found within 7 days, and treatment can be done within 10 days after injury.
- Your injury happened from a type other than blunt impact or crushing.

This trial tests whether giving a small electrical signal during surgery helps nerves in the finger heal better after they are repaired. It might help you regain feeling and movement faster.
This study tests a new way to help finger nerves heal after surgery. The treatment is designed to improve recovery of feeling and movement in the injured finger.
This study tests a special glue called COAPTIUM CONNECT that surgeons can use to reconnect completely cut nerves in fingers. It may help people who have a finger nerve injury, with or without a tendon injury, recover feeling and movement.
This study compares two ways to treat certain finger bone fractures: using a small pin through the skin or using a splint. It also looks at early movement to help prevent stiffness and improve hand function.
This trial compares two surgical techniques for managing pain after a finger or toe amputation. It aims to find which approach better reduces long-term pain and improves recovery.
