NCT ID NCT07514000
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at 40 adults undergoing radiofrequency ablation for varicose veins to compare two types of regional anesthesia: spinal anesthesia and a fascia iliaca block. The goal was to see which method leads to better recovery quality, less pain, and faster mobility after the procedure. Researchers measured recovery using a questionnaire and pain scores.
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 successful, this could help doctors choose the best anesthesia method for faster, more comfortable recovery after varicose vein treatment.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, completed observational study with only 40 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. It compares two anesthesia methods, not a new treatment.
