Lower dose neck block for thyroid surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two doses of a numbing medicine injected near the nerves in your neck before thyroid surgery. The goal is to see if a lower dose provides enough pain relief with fewer side effects, such as affecting your breathing.
