NCT ID NCT02525016

Summary

This study checked if giving the pain medication lidocaine through an IV is safe for very obese patients having weight-loss surgery. Researchers measured the drug levels in patients' blood to see if a standard, weight-based dose was safe and didn't cause harmful side effects. The goal was to provide better pain control after surgery while ensuring patient safety.
