While patient-related factors had no effect on return-to-driving, significant differences were seen in anesthesia type, procedure laterality, driving assistance, and distance. Return-to-driving was significantly later for subjects who had general anesthetic compared to wide awake local anesthetic with no tourniquet (4 \u00b1 4 days vs 1 \u00b1 3 days,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 0.020), as well as for bilateral procedures versus unilateral procedures (5 \u00b1 5 days vs 1 \u00b1 3 days,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 0.046).
