NCT ID NCT07349810

First seen Jan 22, 2026 · Last updated Jun 17, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study compares two methods for controlling pain after same-day orthopedic surgeries like ACL repair or rotator cuff surgery. One group gets a continuous pain pump that delivers numbing medicine for days, while the other gets a single injection nerve block before surgery. Researchers will track pain scores and painkiller use over 14 days to see which approach works better.
