NCT ID NCT06471075

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a 7-minute guided mindfulness exercise can help reduce pain and anxiety in adults undergoing kyphoplasty or radiofrequency ablation for spine pain. Half of the 80 participants will do the mindfulness exercise, while the other half will receive standard pain education. The goal is to see if a very brief mental technique can make a real difference in how unpleasant the pain feels.

What this could lead to

If it works, this could offer a quick, drug-free way to reduce pain during medical procedures.
