Numbing injection study for first-time sinus surgery
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a numbing medication (bupivacaine with epinephrine) injected during your first sinus surgery to see if it helps reduce pain after the procedure. It may be an option if you have not had sinus surgery before and are generally healthy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether a numbing injection near a nerve in the nose can reduce pain after sinus surgery, so you may need fewer strong painkillers. If you're having sinus surgery, this could help manage your pain more safely.
This study tests different ways to manage pain after sinus surgery to help patients recover more comfortably. Participation may help reduce pain and improve your recovery experience.
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.
This trial tests whether avoiding opioid painkillers during and after sinus surgery helps patients recover faster and with fewer side effects, using a standard recovery plan called ERAS.
This trial tests whether a numbing injection (regional anesthesia) during nose surgery can reduce the need for strong pain pills afterward. It's for people having their first nose surgery at specific military hospitals.
This Phase 3 study tests whether a special form of local numbing medicine (liposomal bupivacaine) helps reduce pain after septorhinoplasty (nose and septum surgery). You may be considered if you’re planning this surgery and can follow study instructions before and after.
