One shot vs. a pump: a simpler way to manage Post-Surgery pain?

NCT ID NCT06995352

Summary

This study is comparing two ways to control pain after ankle surgery. One method is a single, long-acting numbing shot. The other is a continuous nerve block delivered through a small pump and catheter. The goal is to see if the single shot works as well as the pump at reducing pain and the need for opioid painkillers, while being simpler and potentially safer for patients.
