Freezing nerves during lung transplant could cut opioid use
NCT ID NCT07281118
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new way to manage pain after a double lung transplant. Instead of relying only on strong pain medicines, doctors will use a cold-therapy probe during surgery to numb the nerves near the incision. The goal is to see if this method reduces the need for opioids and helps patients recover more comfortably. About 148 adults receiving a double lung transplant will take part.
