A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Dexamethasone as an Adjuvant in Ultrasound-Guided Bilateral Superficial Cervical Plexus Block using 0.25% Bupivacaine in Patients Undergoing Thyroid Surgeries under Entropy-Guided General Anesthesia.
Abstract
Ultrasound-guided bilateral superficial cervical plexus block (BSCPB) is a technique described for thyroid surgeries for postoperative analgesia as the surgery can cause severe pain and discomfort. Perineural dexamethasone is known to prolong analgesic duration and reduce postoperative nausea/vomiting.
