Role of local anaesthetic nerve block in endoscopic sinus surgery: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Clinical Otolaryngology Jun 13, 2018

Shamil E, et al. - Researchers conducted a systematic review of existing evidence on the role of local anaesthetic nerve block (LAB) in patients undergoing endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS).

Results demonstrated the requirement of well-conducted large RCTs using standardised inclusion criteria, balanced baseline characteristics of cohorts, and validated subjective and objective outcome measures.
