Summary
This study tested whether adding hyaluronidase to a common numbing drug (bupivacaine) improves pain control after kidney stone surgery. 100 adults undergoing the procedure received an ultrasound-guided nerve block with or without hyaluronidase. The goal was to see if the combination reduces pain scores and improves recovery.
