Summary

This randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of scalp nerve blocks and dexmedetomidine in reducing opioid use and preventing postoperative delirium in patients undergoing supratentorial brain tumor surgery. A total of 2000 patients will be randomly assigned to one of four groups, receiving either active treatments, placebos, or their combinations. The main outcome measured will be the amount of opioid pain medication needed after surgery.

Conditions

  • Postoperative Pain
  • Analgesia
  • Supratentorial Brain Tumor

Interventions

DRUG

Dexmedetomidine

The 200ug dexmedetomidine will be diluted into a 50ml syringe and administered with 0.4ug/kg/h intraoperatively and 0.05 μg/kg/h for 48 hours after surgery.

PROCEDURE

Scalp-Nerve Block

The 10ml 1.33% liposomal bupivacaine will be diluted into a 20ml syringe. As for scalp nerve block, each nerve will be blocked separately with 1-2 mL 0.67% liposomal bupivacaine.
