This study tests two medications, dexmedetomidine and ketamine, to see which one works better for pain after a planned C-section. If you're having a scheduled C-section and are generally healthy, this trial could help find better pain relief options.
This trial studies whether the anesthesia medicines ketamine and dexmedetomidine can improve care during elective lung (video-assisted) surgery. It may help with comfort during and after the operation, depending on how these medicines affect pain and recovery.
This trial tests adding dexmedetomidine to the epidural medicine used for pain relief during labor. If you are in early labor with a healthy pregnancy, this could help manage pain more effectively.
This trial tests whether adding dexmedetomidine (a sedative) to bupivacaine (a numbing medicine) improves pain relief from a nerve block in young children having lower belly surgery. The goal is to see if the combination provides better or longer-lasting pain control.
This trial tests adding dexmedetomidine (a calming medication) to bupivacaine (numbing medication) injected into the spine during knee surgery. The goal is to improve pain relief and recovery after surgery.
This study tests whether adding a sedative medicine called dexmedetomidine to the usual numbing injection around the knee can improve pain relief and recovery after a total knee replacement. It is a pilot (small early-stage) trial to see if this approach is safe and worth studying more.
