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.
This study tests whether a numbing injection near certain neck nerves can reduce pain after throat or neck cancer surgery. It may help patients recover with less discomfort.
This trial tests if giving a numbing injection before front neck surgery under general anesthesia helps control pain better. It may be a good option if you are having this type of elective surgery.
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 the need for strong pain medicines after sinus surgery. It may lead to better pain control with fewer side effects.
