Zap to better pain relief: stanford tests nerve block boost
NCT ID NCT06566664
Summary
This study is testing whether adding a specific type of electrical stimulation during a common pain-numbing procedure (a nerve block) can make it work better. Researchers at Stanford are enrolling 82 patients having elective arm surgery to see if this method makes the numbing start faster, last longer, and reduce the need for opioid painkillers after surgery. The goal is to improve pain control and recovery for patients.
