What this study is about
This trial is testing if a nerve block procedure can reduce the need for opioid pain medication after surgery for the posterior cervical spine. Participants will receive either a nerve block or standard care, and researchers will compare their pain levels and opioid use to see if the nerve block helps lower opioid needs.
