Regional Anesthesia
Alternate Names : Regional Block, Field Block, Nerve Block, Conduction Anesthesia
What happens right after the procedure?
Many procedures that use regional anesthesia are fairly minor. After the
procedure, the person is taken to a
surgery recovery room. The individual may be able to go home a few hours
after the procedure. Someone else must drive the person home. This is because
sedatives can impair coordination and reflexes for several hours.
