New pain predictor could help women avoid suffering after surgery

NCT ID NCT07308444

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested a quick, one-minute risk matrix to predict which patients will have severe pain after gynecologic laparoscopy done as day surgery. Researchers followed 487 women and checked if the tool could identify those at high risk. If it works, doctors could use it to plan better pain relief before patients go home.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If validated, this risk matrix could give doctors a quick, evidence-based way to predict which patients will have severe pain after gynecologic laparoscopy, allowing for better pain management.

What could go wrong

This is a validation study, not a treatment trial. The tool may not work as well in other hospitals or patient groups, and it does not directly improve pain outcomes.
