What this Trial Is About
Nasal turbinectomy surgeries are usually done as day case surgeries as most patients are young with unremarkable comorbidities. However, considerations are still present towards patients of old age or those suffering from obesity or obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Different techniques are still evolving to improve handling those patients to decrease complications, enhance recovery after surgery and increase patient satisfaction. Targeting sphenopalatine ganglion block by topical local anesthesia is a proposed technique that could help by decreasing peri-operative opioid consumption.
