NCT ID NCT07490795
First seen Mar 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 20, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study looked at 117 women having planned C-sections to compare two pain relief methods: morphine given during spinal anesthesia and a nerve block (ultrasound-guided transversalis fascia plane block). Researchers measured pain levels, how long until patients needed extra pain medicine, and overall satisfaction. The goal is to find which approach works better for managing pain after surgery.
