Functional recovery of wrist surgery with regional versus general anesthesia: a prospective observational study

ConclusionRegional anesthesia was not associated with improved functional recovery compared with general anesthesia. The dominance of the operated limb was a confusion factor in all evaluation modalities. Further research taking into account the dominance of the hand is necessary to establish the effects of regional anesthesia on functional recovery.Study registrationClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04541745); registered 9 September 2020.
