Zapping the ear to ease back surgery pain?

NCT ID NCT07330973

Summary

This study tests whether gentle electrical stimulation on the ear can help reduce pain and the need for strong painkillers after complex spine surgery. Researchers will enroll 98 patients having major spinal operations. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either real stimulation or a sham (fake) treatment before and after surgery to see if it makes recovery easier.
