Official title
The Effect of Thoracolumbar Paravertebral Block or Intravenous Lidocaine and Ketamine Versus Standard Care on Acute and Chronic Pain After Inguinal Herniorrhaphy
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The investigators are conducting this study to find out if intravenous (injected through the vein) infusion of lidocaine and ketamine administered with general anesthesia is as effective as a paravertebral block in lessening pain after surgery and that both of these techniques are superior to general anesthesia alone in reducing pain immediately after surgery and in the long-term.
