Freezing nerves during surgery could cut opioid use for transplant patients

NCT ID NCT07281118

Summary

This study is testing whether freezing nerves near the surgical incision during a double lung transplant can help manage pain afterward. Doctors use a special cold probe during surgery to numb the area, hoping this reduces the need for strong opioid painkillers and helps patients recover faster. Researchers will compare pain levels, opioid use, and recovery time between patients who receive this cold therapy and those who get standard care.
