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 study tests a numbing injection near a nerve in your nose to see if it can reduce pain and help you recover faster after tonsillectomy. It is a non-drug approach that may offer an alternative to strong pain medicines.
This trial compares two common steroids, methylprednisolone and dexamethasone, to see which works better for reducing pain, nausea, and the effects of muscle relaxant reversal drugs in adults having nose surgery.
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 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 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.
