NCT ID NCT06737237
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares two ways to manage pain after clavicle (collarbone) surgery: a nerve block (cervical plexus block) versus local anesthetic injected into the surgical site. The goal is to see which method reduces the need for strong painkillers like fentanyl and improves recovery. The trial will enroll 40 adults aged 18-64 who are scheduled for clavicle surgery at a military medical center.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
bupivacaine
What this could lead to
If the nerve block works better, it could become the standard way to manage pain after clavicle surgery, reducing the need for strong painkillers like fentanyl.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 40 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The study is not blinded, which could bias outcomes.
