Nerve block during elective facial surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a numbing “nerve block” to see how well it controls pain for people having planned facial/jaw surgery. If you’re eligible, you’d receive the study’s nerve-block approach during your operation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 21 to 60 years
- You are having planned (elective) facial/jaw surgery
- You are classified as ASA 1 or 2 (generally healthy or mild medical issues)
- You are not pregnant and not breast-feeding
- You do not have an infection in the mouth or on the face
- You do not have bleeding problems, planned breathing support after surgery, or serious body injuries (polytrauma)

This trial tests whether numbing the scalp with a nerve block before brain surgery can reduce pain after the operation, keep your heart rate and blood pressure stable, and lower your body's stress response to surgery.
This trial tests whether a specific nerve block can reduce pain during and after surgeries on the face, jaw, or upper neck. If you are having a procedure like removing a cyst, draining an abscess, or a lymph node biopsy in these areas, you may be eligible.
This study tests whether a numbing injection (nerve block) given after jaw surgery can reduce pain. It is for adults undergoing planned bimaxillary surgery without any other additional procedures.
This trial tests whether a nerve block behind the nose can reduce pain after double-jaw surgery. It may help patients who are having this surgery and want better pain control.
This study tests a nerve block technique on preserved human specimens to see how well it works. It helps researchers understand how to numb the upper and lower jaw.
This study tests a numbing injection in the cheek area before septorhinoplasty to see if it improves pain control and reduces the need for strong IV pain medicine. It may help you have a smoother recovery with less discomfort.
