Trigger Finger Treatment Operative QID: 220074 (SBQ24HW.85)
In scope icon N/A
QID 220074 (Type "220074" in App Search)
A 65-year-old right-hand dominant female presents with a long-standing history of right index finger pain and catching while making a fist. She is diagnosed with stenosing tenosynovitis and receives two corticosteroid injections 6 months apart which provided relief. Her last injection was 2 months ago, but she is now presenting with more locking during flexion of her right index finger. The patient is consented for a trigger finger release. When should this procedure be scheduled to reduce her risk of postoperative infection?
