Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - lidocaine 2% and 10%
Treatment: Drugs - Placebo

Active comparator: Lidocaine - 2% Lidocaine infusion intra-operative and 10% Lidocaine infusion post-operative.

Placebo comparator: Placebo - 0.9% Saline infusion intra-operative and 0.9% Saline infusion post-operative.


Treatment: Drugs: lidocaine 2% and 10%
Lidocaine infusion:
