Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

studying the effect of dexmeditomidine addition to bupivacaine in bilateral intermediate cervical block for patients undergoing thyroidectomy under general anaesthesia

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

80 patients who will be undergoing elective thyroidectomy will be randomly allocated into one of two groups ; group A will receive 20 mg isobaric bupivacaine + 8 mg dexamethasone(diluted in 5 ml) group B will receive 20 mg isobaric bupivacaine + 1 ml normal saline. block will be done under complete a septic condition after induction of general anaesthesia.
