New study tests if you can drive home after minor surgery
NCT ID NCT00577200
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether people can drive safely right after minor surgery with newer, short-acting anesthesia drugs. About 625 adults who have minor procedures (like hand or foot surgery) will take a driving simulator test before leaving the clinic. The goal is to see if certain drug combinations affect driving skills, so doctors can give better advice on when it's safe to get behind the wheel.
