Official title

Evaluation of a Preoperative Nerve Block in Pain Scores Following Rhinoplasty/Septoplasty

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Addiction is an inherent risk when prescribing opiates for pain relief, and methods to reduce its use or amount prescribed can help mitigate this risk for addiction. Patients undergoing rhinoplasty are often prescribed a short course of opiates during the acute post surgical phase. Studies have shown intraoperative sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) nerve block in endoscopic sinus surgery can reduce post operative narcotic use. The purpose of this study is to determine if use of SPG block can be used to reduce narcotic use in the acute post operative phase of rhinoplasty/septoplasty.
