Numbing shot during brain surgery could ease recovery pain

NCT ID NCT06353529

Summary

This study is testing whether a targeted numbing injection during minimally invasive pituitary surgery helps control pain afterward. About 108 patients will be randomly assigned to receive either the numbing medication, a saltwater placebo injection, or no extra injection during their operation. Researchers will then track patients' pain levels and painkiller use in the first day after surgery to see if the nerve block improves comfort and recovery.
