NCT ID NCT07378189
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares opioid-free anesthesia to standard opioid-based anesthesia for people having laparoscopic pancreatic surgery. The goal is to see if avoiding opioids leads to less pain and lower opioid use after surgery. Two hundred adults aged 18-80 will take part, and researchers will measure pain, nausea, and recovery quality.
