Effects of ulnar nerve palsy
CLAWING IS WORSE IN LOW VS HIGH ULNAR NERVE PALSY
low: loss of key pinch and clawing and loss of integration of flexion
high: FCU, FDP 4/5 also lost
Goals of tendon transfers for ulnar nerve palsy
restore key pinch, correct clawing, integrate finger flexion, and restore FDP 4/5
Tendon transfer for ulnar nerve palsy

Guideline for cardiac clearance
- Is there need for emergency NCS? If yes, proceed with surgery.
- Are there active cardiac conditions (unstable coronary syndromes, decompensated heart failure, significant arrhythmias, severe valvular disease)? If yes, evaluate and treat per specific guidelines before considering NCS.
- Is the NCS considered low risk (e.g., superficial and ophthalmologic procedures)? If yes, proceed with low-risk NCS.
- Does the patient have good functional capacity (METs >= 4) without symptoms? If yes, proceed with NCS.
Is there need for emergency NCS? If yes, proceed with surgery.
Three or more clinical risk factors undergoing vascular surgery: consider testing if it will change management
One or two clinical risk factors undergoing vascular surgery or one or more clinical risk factors undergoing intermediate-risk surgery: either proceed with surgery with heart rate control (beta blockade) or consider noninvasive testing if it will change management
Tx for injury to motor branch after endo CTR resulting in loss of opposition?
