Numbing Block to Reduce Pain Medicine During Nose Surgery
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Pain clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 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.
This study compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) used to reduce pain after chest surgery. It aims to see if one provides better pain relief than the other, which might help you recover more comfortably.
This study tests whether numbing a nerve inside the nose (called a sphenopalatine ganglion block) on both sides can reduce pain after septoplasty, a surgery to straighten the cartilage and bone inside the nose. If you're having this surgery, the treatment might help you feel less pain afterward.
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.
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.
