Ear needles vs. opioids: a new fight against surgery pain
NCT ID NCT05974254
Summary
This study aimed to see if adding ear acupuncture during wrist fracture surgery could help patients use fewer opioid painkillers afterward. It planned to compare two groups of adults getting the same surgery and standard pain plan, with only one group receiving the acupuncture. The main goal was to measure total opioid use in the two weeks after surgery. However, the trial was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled.
