Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This prospective multicentre observational registry evaluates early clinical outcomes following the use of High-Purity Type I Collagen (HPTC) as a circumferential nerve wrap during peripheral nerve procedures. Eligible procedures include nerve repair, coaptation, grafting, nerve transfers, and decompressions in the upper and lower limbs. Primary outcomes include early motor recovery assessed using the Medical Research Council (MRC) motor grading system. Secondary outcomes include sensory recovery, neuropathic pain, patient-reported functional outcomes, complication rates, and patient satisfaction assessed at standardized postoperative intervals up to two months.

- HPTC Nerve Wrap Arm
- description
- Participants undergoing peripheral nerve procedures-including nerve repair, coaptation, grafting, nerve transfer, or decompression-in whom a High-Purity Type I Collagen (HPTC) membrane is used intraoperatively as a circumferential nerve wrap. Outcomes related to motor recovery, sensory recovery, neuropathic pain, complications, and patient-reported functional status are prospectively assessed.
