New anesthesia mix aims to reduce opioid use and improve surgery recovery

NCT ID NCT06985069

Summary

This study tested two different anesthesia approaches for people having major surgery. One approach used a combination of several non-opioid medications along with opioids, while the other used mainly opioids. Researchers wanted to see which method led to better patient recovery, less pain, fewer side effects like nausea, and reduced need for opioids after surgery. The study involved 240 adult patients having surgeries lasting at least 60 minutes.
