Tiny ear device aims to cut Post-Surgery pain and opioid use

NCT ID NCT05742711

Summary

This study tested a small, battery-powered device placed behind the ear during surgery. It uses gentle electrical pulses to stimulate nerves, with the goal of reducing pain after cancer surgery. Researchers wanted to see if this approach could help patients need less opioid pain medication, which can have significant side effects. The study involved 48 women undergoing surgery for endometrial or cervical cancer.
