Poor sleep before breast cancer surgery may mean more pain and inflammation
NCT ID NCT07547774
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is looking at 150 women having breast cancer surgery to see if their sleep quality in the month before surgery can predict how much pain and inflammation they have afterward. Participants fill out a sleep questionnaire before surgery, and their pain and painkiller use are tracked for 24 hours after. The goal is to understand if poor sleepers need more pain relief, which could help personalize care.
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 it works, this could help doctors identify patients who may need extra pain management after breast cancer surgery based on their sleep quality.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only looks for links between sleep and recovery, so it won't directly improve outcomes. Results may not apply to all patients.
