Abstract

This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (Intervention). The objectives are as follows:

  • To assess and compare the effects and complication rates of licensed bioengineered nerve conduits or wraps for surgical repair of traumatic peripheral nerve injuries of the upper limb.

  • To compare effects and complications against the current gold surgical standard (nerve autograft).
