Randomized Controlled TrialRole of dexamethasone in reducing pain after endoscopic sinus surgery in adults: a double-blind prospective randomized trial.
We sought to study postoperative pain after endoscopic sinus surgery and to evaluate the efficacy of dexamethasone sodium phosphate in reducing pain and rescue analgesic requirements. ⋯ Dexamethasone injection at the time of induction of general anesthesia is not superior to placebo in controlling early postoperative pain in patients who undergo endoscopic sinus surgery.
