NCT ID NCT06574022

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

Summary

This study compares two standard pain-block methods for people having a mastectomy (breast removal) due to breast cancer or high risk. One method uses a nerve block before surgery, the other during surgery. The goal is to see which approach reduces the need for opioid painkillers and improves recovery. About 100 adults will take part.
