Learning objectives
+ Become able to identify the key gaps in evidence regarding immobilization and rehabilitation protocols following trapeziometacarpal total joint arthroplasty, as highlighted in the scoping review by Bonhof-Jansen et al., and understand the implications for future research in this area.
+ Become able to evaluate the effectiveness of combining bupivacaine with lidocaine in improving postoperative pain management and patient outcomes following carpal tunnel release surgery.
+ Become able to understand the clinical outcomes and implications of using the Scaphoid Trapezium Pyrocarbon Implant (STPI) for treating scapho-trapezium osteoarthritis (STT-OA), including its benefits, limitations, and the significance of revision rates in long-term patient care.
+ Understand the clinical applications and advantages of the dorsoproximal interphalangeal island flap technique in managing soft tissue defects, specifically in the context of repair for palmar scar contractures resulting from burn injuries and congenital anomalies such as syndactyly.
