Objective To analyze the effect of selective radial nerve block and traditional brachial plexus block on muscle strength recovery upper limb surgery anesthesia. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 50 patients who underwent upper limb surgery with traditional brachial plexus block anesthesia January 2022 to December 2022 in our hospital, which was set as the control group. Another retrospective analysis was conducted on 0 patients who underwent upper limb surgery with selective radial nerve block from January 2022 to December 2022 in our hospital, which was as the observation group. The anesthesia effect and muscle strength recovery were compared between the two groups. Results The anesthesia effect was better in the observation group, and postoperative muscle strength recovery was better than that in the control group, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusion In upper limb surgery, compared with traditional brachial plexus block, selective radial nerve block has better anesthesia effect and can accelerate the recovery of muscle strength in the blocked area.
