Common heart drug tested to slash surgery pain and opioid use
NCT ID NCT04096170
Summary
This study is testing whether adding intravenous lidocaine (a common local anesthetic) to standard pain management can better control pain after hernia repair surgery. Researchers will compare lidocaine to a placebo in 50 patients to see if it reduces the need for opioid painkillers, lowers pain scores, and helps patients recover faster. The goal is to find a safer way to manage post-surgery pain and improve recovery.
