NCT ID NCT06996379
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a needle-free device called the J-Tip can reduce pain and anxiety during a procedure that drains fluid from the belly (paracentesis) in people with liver cirrhosis. About 110 adults will be randomly assigned to receive numbing medicine either through a standard needle or through the J-Tip. Participants will rate their pain and anxiety during and after the procedure, and researchers will track any complications.
