SVH offers new technology for carpal tunnel surgery MT. PLEASAN- T- Thanks to new technology, Steven Mickel-se- n of Redmond, was back on the job a little more than two weeks, after having major surgery on both his hands last month. Before the surgery, Mickelsen had trouble sleeping because of intense pain in his wrists. During the day, numbness and weakness in his hands often meant losing grip of objects and dropping them. Finally, Mickelsen was with carpal tunnel drome, an increasingly common condition that is more prevalent in individuals who use their hands in repetitive motions, are overweight and who people pregnant women. Carpal tunnel can be treated in various ways, including the use of splints. But Mickelsons case called for surgery. Mickelsen was referred to Sanpete Valley Hospital surgeon Randy Hansen, MD, who performs most carpal tunnel surgeries now through use of endoscopic equipment. Endoscopy is basically television technology that allows the surgeon to work through tiny slits rather than major openings in the body. This technology shaves about half the time off the actual surgery. It also means an average of two weeks recovery versus four to six in the traditional procedure. "It is not uncommon that patients go home from the hospital Dr. Hansen said. For more information about endoscopic carpal tunnel surgery, contact Dr. Hansens office at diagsyn- - nosed FARM FOR LEASE rnMRES Fountain Green Area pain-free- 445-349- 1 462-244- or t ; te'"5 by Bruce Jennings MANTI Manti Citys ongoing consideration of two tentative Main Street projects, a new office building, and the fate of the old town hall building, will be explored at a public hearing at the Manti City Building Thursday evening, April 6, at 8 p.m. "We hope for a good turnout of residents," Mayor Kent Larsen said.
