Could freezing your nerves before surgery cut painkiller use?
NCT ID NCT05840276
Summary
This study is testing if a procedure called cryoneurolysis can help manage pain after knee replacement surgery. Before surgery, half of the 100 participants will have specific nerves around their knee frozen, while the other half will receive a sham (fake) procedure. The main goal is to see if the nerve-freezing group uses fewer opioid painkillers and reports less pain in the two weeks after their operation.
