New back surgery pain relief study aims to cut opioid use

NCT ID NCT06869889

Summary

This study compares two different methods for managing pain after surgery for a herniated disc in the lower back. Researchers want to see if a specific nerve block (retrolaminar block) works better than standard local numbing at the surgical site. The goal is to find which method provides longer-lasting pain relief with less need for opioid painkillers, potentially leading to a smoother recovery for patients.
