Summary
This study looked at whether adding dexmedetomidine to a standard nerve block (Pecs block) can reduce the need for morphine and improve pain relief after breast cancer surgery. Sixty women aged 18–60 participated. The main goal was to measure total morphine use in the first 48 hours after surgery, with pain scores also tracked. Results aim to find a better way to manage post-surgery pain.
