C-Section pain pump study aims to cut opioid use
NCT ID NCT05131178
First seen Feb 06, 2026 · Last updated May 18, 2026 · Updated 9 times
Summary
This study looks at whether a continuous pain pump delivering numbing medicine (bupivacaine) after a C-section can lower the need for stronger painkillers like opioids. About 100 pregnant adults having C-sections at a special care center will be randomly assigned to get either the numbing medicine or a saltwater placebo through the pump. The goal is to see which part of the standard pain management plan is most effective at reducing opioid use.
