Ultrasound-guided trigger finger release and treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome

by SSM Health

Recover in Days – Not Months – With Less Cost and Downtime

If trigger finger or carpal tunnel pain is limiting your ability to function, it’s time to do something about it. Rapid relief from these conditions and a quick return to normal activities is possible, thanks to a low profile, safe and effective instrument, and ultrasound guidance.

The Benefits are Many

Unlike other potential treatments, both of these procedures can be performed in a matter of minutes using minimally invasive techniques that provide multiple advantages to patients.

  • Performed in a procedure room or office setting
  • Typically performed using local anesthesia
  • Immediate resolution of trigger finger mechanical symptoms
  • No reported infection, vascular injury, or nerve injury 
  • Immediate motion for rapid recovery
  • Faster return to normal activity
Carpal tunnel syndrome treatment features:
  • Performed in a procedure room or office setting
  • Typically performed using local anesthesia
  • Small wrist incision usually closed without sutures
  • Reduce or eliminate the need for opioids
  • Postoperative therapy typically not required - saving time and money
  • Immediate motion in the hand for rapid recovery
