Trial summary

Septorhinoplasty is a widely performed surgery that aims to correct both functional and aesthetic problems of the nose. Despite its expected clinical benefits, septorhinoplasty surgery causes postoperative pain, which affects the patient's functional recovery and satisfaction. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Sphenopalatine Ganglion Block on Intraoperative Remifentanil Consumption and Postoperative Pain in Septorhinoplasty Surgery

Septorhinoplasty is a widely performed surgery that aims to correct both functional and aesthetic problems of the nose. Despite its expected clinical benefits, septorhinoplasty surgery causes postoperative pain, which affects the patient's functional recovery and satisfaction. Opioids, Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAII), acetaminophen and local anesthetics are used in peroperative pain management in septorhinoplasty. Sphenopalatine ganglion block (SPGB), which has been recently described and has different application areas, is a regional analgesia technique that has been investigated for this purpose. Although there are studies on postoperative pain in septorhinoplasty surgeries, there are not enough studies on its effects on intraoperative pain.

This study may have positive effects on appropriate pain management, patient comfort and surgical outcomes as multimodal analgesia management in septorhinoplasty surgeries, and may make significant contributions to evidence-based practices.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Sphenopalatine Ganglion BlockProcedure or surgery

    For SPGB, the plastic part of the 16G angiogram is advanced transnasally into both nostrils, with the patient in the supine position and the head in 15-20° extension, until it contacts the posterior mucosa, and after contact, it is withdrawn 1 mm and 2 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine is dripped into the postnasal space within 1 minute. is applied.

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

remifentanil consumption (time frame: 2 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
