Spine surgery breakthrough? Pre-Op shot aims to slash pain and recovery time

NCT ID NCT06367855

Summary

This study is testing if giving a single dose of the steroid dexamethasone right before a specific type of minimally invasive spine fusion surgery can better control pain after the operation. Researchers want to see if this approach reduces patients' back pain, lowers their need for strong painkillers like morphine, and helps them leave the hospital sooner. The study will enroll 60 adults aged 50-80 who are scheduled for this surgery on one or two levels of their lower spine.
