Eye-Opening pain relief: pupillometer may cut opioid use after surgery
NCT ID NCT07614607
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether an automated pupillometer—a device that measures how the pupil reacts to light—can help doctors better assess and treat pain during and after surgery. 68 adults having abdominal surgery will be randomly assigned to either standard pain care or care guided by the pupillometer. The goal is to see if this tool leads to less opioid use and better pain control.
