Back surgery pain study tests blocks vs. local numbing

NCT ID NCT06199999

Summary

This study compared two methods for managing pain after spinal fusion surgery. It tested whether a specific nerve block given before surgery or a large dose of local numbing medicine given at the end worked better than standard care alone. Researchers measured patients' pain levels, need for opioid painkillers, and signs of post-surgery confusion to see which method improved recovery.
