------>fullAbstract=The Wide-Awake Approach to Dupuytren~s contracture involves fasciectomy under local anesthetic with epinephrine and no tourniquet. The goal of this study is to show that the Wide-Awake Approach produces equivalent outcomes to fasciectomy under general anesthetic with a tourniquet, with fewer risks to the patient. A multicenter retrospective review was conducted on 111 patients with fasciectomies under local or general anesthetic between 2001 and 2007. Data on patient demographics, comorbidities, cost, as well as range of motion was collected and evaluated using Microsoft Excel and SAS. Of 148 fingers, 102 were treated under local and 46 under general anesthetic. The average postoperative Total Active Motion (TAM) for general anesthetic patients was 199.0 +/- 29.6 (D5), 223.9 +/- 29.3 (D4), 234.6 +/- 14.6 (D3), and 246.7 +/- 14.4 (D2). The average postoperative TAM for local anesthetic patients was 168.3 +/- 62.2 (D5), 195.9 +/- 67.5 (D4), 173.0 +/- 72.6 (D3), and 177.5 +/- 31.8 (D2). There were no significant differences between any of these individual groups (p = 0.09, 0.26, 0.12, and 0.20, respectively); however, when pooled, the overall TAM was significantly greater in the general anesthesia group (222.0 +/- 29.7 vs. 186.0 +/- 63.0, p = 0.002.). Complication rates and types were similar with both techniques. The Wide-Awake Approach to Dupuytren~s contracture avoids general anesthetic risks and has cost benefits to healthcare providers. Although it yields similar range of motion outcomes to fasciectomy performed under general anesthesia, total active motion may be better with fasciectomy done under general anesthesia.
