Hand Surgery is surgery of the hand, the wrist and the peripheral 
ABOUT nerves  of the upper limb. It also encompasses reconstructive surgery that  improves upper and lower limbs function.
US Many disorders and injuries of the hand are treated without 
surgery,  using splints, taping, injections and hand physiotherapy.
A typical hand surgery operation is performed as a day-case under a regional anaesthesia (injected in the 
armpit, to  numb the entire arm) or under local anaesthesia (injected beneath the skin at the site of surgery). 
The patient is  awake or lightly sedated, according to preference.
General anaesthesia and/or overnight stay in hospital are unusual but are required for some operations on the 
hand.  The surgeon uses fine instruments to handle the delicate structures in the hand, and may use 
magnifying glasses  (loupes) or an operating microscope for repair of the small nerves and arteries in the hand.
Post-operative treatment by a hand therapist is essential for optimal recovery after some types of hand surgery.
As we age, maintaining independence in daily life 
 becomes increasingly important. For many older 
 adults, arthritis can be a significant obstacle to  
independence, particularly when it affects the  
hands. Arthritis-related hand pain and stiffness 
can  make even the simplest tasks, such as 
gripping a  doorknob or buttoning a shirt, 
challenging.
However, there’s hope. Hand operation 
training, a  specialized approach to 
rehabilitation, can
significantly improve hand function and help older adults with arthritis maximize their
independence.
In this blog, we’ll explore the importance of hand operation training for arthritis for older. We’ll 
delve  into the benefits, techniques, and the role of occupational therapists in this journey 
towards greater  independence and a higher quality of life.
