Numbing shot tested to ease pain after thyroid surgery

NCT ID NCT06002152

Summary

This study tested whether a numbing injection (nerve block) given before thyroid surgery improves how patients feel the day after. 160 participants were randomly assigned to receive either the real numbing medicine or a placebo saline injection. Researchers compared the two groups using a detailed recovery survey to see if the block made a meaningful difference in comfort and pain control.
