Freezing nerves vs epidural: which eases surgery pain better?
NCT ID NCT07431632
Summary
This study compares two methods for managing pain after minimally invasive surgery to correct pectus excavatum (a sunken chest). Researchers will test whether freezing the nerves between ribs (cryoanalgesia) works as well as or better than a traditional epidural pain block. The trial involves 40 patients in Brazil and will measure pain levels, opioid use, hospital stay length, and patient satisfaction.
