It depends on your and your surgeon preferences.You can go to sleep for surgery or you can have nerve block with sedation.In my practice we do a block with sedation.

Hello,

Elbow surgery could be performed either under regional block or general anesthesia. You should discuss this matter with your anesthesiologist.
