Operating under local anesthesia means that the patient will not need extra laboratory or x-ray tests, will not need to see their primary doctor, will be able to eat and drink before surgery, and likely will not need an IV catheter. This makes Wide Awake hand surgery far more cost-effective and convenient for the patient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We offer expertise in treating the following problems with the wide awake technique:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Carpal tunnel release<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dupuytren Contracture release<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ligament repair<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mass excision<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Trigger finger release<\/li>\n\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"about-your-appointment\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">About your appointment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What to bring to your UCHealth Hand Clinic appointment<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Your photo ID (driver\u2019s license, passport, state or military ID are acceptable).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Your insurance card.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A referral form or number if required by your insurance carrier.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Previous medical records.
