Sponsor's own description
Distal fracture of the radial bone is the commonest fracture and is also connected to osteoporosis. Normally the operation is performed under neuroaxial blockade and sedation. When the blockade rapidly vanish many patients experience a rebound pain much severer that than the actual trauma pain. If long acting local anesthetics are used this will occur during night time and many patients will go to the emergency room for pain treatment. Short acting local anesthetics may make it possible to treat patients pain in-house prior to leaving the hospital. In this study
