Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Verify if intralesional infusion of local anesthetic and steroids has a greater analgesic efficacy compared to the control group during the first 7 days after surgery, assessed by reduction of analgesics consumption ;Secondary Objective: -Safety evaluation: side effects of whole treatment (systemic and local drugs), also at 1 and 3 months -Reduction of pain values within 7 days following surgery (assessed by rate Numeric Rating Scale - scale from 0 to 10); -Reduction in the incidence of morphine side effects; -Reduction in the incidence of persistent post-surgical pain (estimated at 1 and 3 months) - Analysis of the inflammatory response and genetic patterns corresponding to pain ;Primary end point(s): Verify if intralesional infusion of local anesthetic and steroids has a greater analgesic efficacy compared to the control group during the first 7 days after surgery, assessed by reduction of analgesics consumption ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 7 days after surgery | — |
