Doctors use pupil scans to cut opioid doses in heart surgery
NCT ID NCT03864016
Summary
This study tested if using a special device to measure pupil dilation during heart surgery could help anesthesiologists give the right amount of opioid painkiller. Researchers compared 50 patients having planned heart surgery, giving some doctors the pupil measurement tool and others using standard methods. The goal was to see if this tool could safely reduce the total amount of opioid medication needed during the operation.
