New numbing shot could ease pain after brain surgery
NCT ID NCT07245290
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests if a long-lasting numbing drug (liposomal bupivacaine) injected into the scalp before surgery can reduce pain after a specific type of brain surgery called microvascular decompression. About 100 adults having this surgery will be randomly assigned to receive either the numbing injection or standard care. The goal is to see if this approach provides better pain control and reduces the need for strong painkillers.
