Nerve block and sedation drug for better sleep after gynecologic surgery

This trial tests whether adding a calming medicine called dexmedetomidine to a nerve block around the knee can help you sleep better after arthroscopic knee surgery. It aims to find if this combination reduces sleep problems during recovery.
This study tests two treatments to help improve sleep after breast cancer surgery: a nerve block near the neck and a gentle ear stimulation. These treatments may reduce pain and improve sleep quality during recovery.
This study tests a procedure called a stellate ganglion block, which is an injection near a nerve in the neck, to see if it can improve sleep quality in people with prolonged disorders of consciousness after brain injury, following a surgery to implant a spinal cord stimulator.
This trial tests whether giving a nerve block (pain-relieving injection) before mastectomy surgery helps improve sleep quality after the operation. It compares two groups to see if the block leads to better rest and recovery.
This study tests whether combining a very mild nerve stimulation (taVNS) with a sedative (dexmedetomidine) can reduce nausea and vomiting after laparoscopic surgery. It may be a good option if you are scheduled for keyhole surgery and want to feel better afterward.
This study tests a procedure called a stellate ganglion block, which numbs a cluster of nerves in the neck, to see if it can improve sleep in people with depression. It may help if you have both depression and sleep problems.
