NCT ID NCT06539390

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

Summary

This study reviewed records of 201 adults who received a common back pain injection (transforaminal epidural steroid injection) to see if using sedation made a difference. Researchers compared patient satisfaction, pain scores, radiation exposure, and complication rates between those who got sedation and those who didn't. The goal was to help doctors and patients decide if sedation is worthwhile for this procedure.
