Needle-Free jet injection matches cream for pain relief in clubfoot babies

NCT ID NCT04766684

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested two numbing methods for a common clubfoot procedure in infants: a needle-free jet injection that works in 1-2 minutes versus a topical cream that takes 30 minutes. Researchers measured pain using a standard scale, heart rate, and oxygen levels in 107 babies. The goal was to see if the faster jet injection provides equal or better pain relief without more side effects.
