Summary

This study looks at how giving dexamethasone (a steroid) through a shot near the spine or through an IV affects pain and inflammation in children aged 10-18 having scoliosis surgery. It also tests different strengths of local anesthetic. The goal is to find the best approach to reduce pain and improve recovery. Sixty children will take part.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Dexamethasone
What this could lead to: If successful, this could help doctors choose the best way to give dexamethasone to reduce pain and inflammation in children after scoliosis surgery.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-phase study with only 60 children, so results may not apply to all patients. The main focus is on pain control, not curing scoliosis.
