New nerve block mix could ease agony after major chest surgery

NCT ID NCT06330168

Summary

This study is testing if adding a medication called calcitonin to a standard pain-blocking injection can better control pain for patients having chest surgery (thoracotomy). Researchers want to see if this combination reduces pain scores, lowers the need for strong opioid painkillers after surgery, and might even help prevent long-term chronic pain. The study involves 92 adults scheduled for this type of surgery.
