New nerve block technique aims for safer, faster pain relief after surgery
NCT ID NCT02911168
Summary
This study compared two different ways of giving a nerve block to control pain after breast cancer surgery (mastectomy). Researchers tested a new technique called the proximal intercostal block against a standard method to see if it was easier to perform, faster, and safer. They enrolled 20 female patients to see which method provided better pain relief with fewer risks.
