Clinical Trial: The Effect of Bilateral Intermediate Cervical Plexus Block on the Surgical Stress Response Following Total Thyroidectomy

U.S., Aug. 1 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07740460) titled 'The Effect of Bilateral Intermediate Cervical Plexus Block on the Surgical Stress Response Following Total Thyroidectomy' on July 28.

Brief Summary: Total thyroidectomy triggers a systemic surgical stress response involving neuroendocrine and inflammatory pathways. Ultrasound-guided bilateral intermediate cervical plexus block (BICPB) is commonly utilized for postoperative analgesia; however, its specific impact on modulating the systemic stress biomarker response remains to be fully elucidated.

To evaluate the effect of an ultrasound-guided BICPB on the perioperative surgical stress response by comparing changes in specific serum i...
