***BREAKING NEWS*** The first Project Kuyenda supported regional anaesthesia case happened today and was a success! Incredible work by Adam Paul. Introduced due to the death of a patient from sepsis 2ndary to an open forearm # that couldn’t be debrided as no GA last visit. 👏

Results of this RCT will help guide the treatment of dorsally displaced distal radial fractures in the elderly and assess whether surgery offers functional benefit to patients. #BJO @KatBellOrtho @OrthoOliver @sgmolyneux @DuckworthOrthEd @EdinOrthopaedic ow.ly/52Vj50TVviH
