First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jul 08, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This completed study surveyed 283 women who had scheduled C-sections under spinal anesthesia and followed an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol. Researchers called participants at 3 and 6 months to ask about scar pain and how it affected daily life. The goal was to see how common chronic pain is with this approach and whether the ERAS protocol helps prevent it.
