Numbing shot before surgery could slash Post-Op pain

NCT ID NCT04327063

Summary

This study tested if injecting a numbing medicine (ropivacaine) near nerves in the chest before breast cancer surgery could better control pain right after the operation. It compared the numbing shot to a placebo (saltwater) shot in 182 women having a lumpectomy. The main goal was to see if the numbing block reduced the need for strong painkillers in the first few hours after surgery.
