Better Pain Relief After Sinus Surgery
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests new ways to manage pain after functional endoscopic sinus surgery (a minimally invasive procedure to treat sinus problems). The goal is to find the best pain relief method so you're more comfortable after your operation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial is testing whether packing the nose with one of three medications (dexmedetomidine, midazolam, or bupivacaine) during functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) can improve the surgeon's view during the procedure. It may help patients by reducing bleeding and making the surgery smoother.
This study tests two different medications (dexmedetomidine and lidocaine) to see which one better prevents agitation when waking up after sinus surgery. If you're having elective sinus surgery and are in generally good health, you may be able to join.
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.
This study tests a nerve block (called sphenopalatine ganglion block) for pain relief after pituitary tumor surgery through the nose. It aims to see if this block helps manage pain and reduces the need for other pain medicines.
This trial tests whether a nerve block (injecting numbing medicine near a nerve in your nose) can reduce pain after septoplasty, which is surgery to straighten the wall inside your nose.
This trial compares two medicines, lidocaine and magnesium, given through an IV during sinus surgery to see which one works better at reducing the need for fentanyl, a strong painkiller. The goal is to find a way to manage pain with fewer side effects.
