Research recommendations coming out of this guidance

  • NICE encourages further research into processed nerve allografts to repair peripheral nerve discontinuities. This should include information on the type of nerve repaired, the anatomical site, the size of the defect, patient reported outcome measures, functional outcomes, time to recovery and long-term outcomes (12 months to 18 months).
