First seen Jan 10, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study tested two ways to manage initial pain in children with acute pancreatitis: using opioids (like morphine) versus non-opioid pain relievers. The goal was to see if avoiding opioids could still control pain effectively and safely. The trial was small (23 participants) and ended early, so results are limited, but it helps design future larger studies.
