Comparing two steroids for nose surgery recovery
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial compares two common medicines (methylprednisolone and dexamethasone) given during nose surgery to see which one helps you wake up from anesthesia better, reduces pain, and lowers the chance of nausea. If you are having a septoplasty or rhinoplasty, this study may help improve your recovery experience.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 65 years old

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 study compares two different doses of a steroid medication given before gallbladder removal surgery to see which dose helps you recover better after the operation. The steroid is meant to reduce inflammation and improve your recovery experience.
This study tests whether a special numbing injection in the upper jaw (bilateral maxillary block) helps reduce the amount of pain medication needed during septorhinoplasty—a surgery to reshape the nose and straighten the septum. The goal is to find ways to use less strong pain medication during surgery.
This trial tests if two different medicines, dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine, given as a nerve block in your nose during rhinoplasty can better control pain after surgery.
This trial tests two inhaled medicines given before surgery to see which one works better for pain after nasal surgery. One medicine is ketamine and the other is dexmedetomidine, both given as a mist through a nebulizer.
This study tests whether giving a steroid medication called dexamethasone during nasal surgery improves sleep quality in the first few days after the operation. The goal is to see if it helps patients recover more restfully.
