Summary
We aim to study the impact of perioperative IV lidocaine on postoperative pain control in
patients undergoing paraesophageal hernia repair. This is in the context of an established
ERAS protocol. We wish to study the effect of IV Lidocaine on postoperative short and
long-term outcomes, including patients' length of stay postoperative mortality, morbidity,
and quality of life. We will compare this to our standard pain management.
