High-Tech pill bottle aims to curb opioid dangers after surgery

NCT ID NCT06358040

Summary

This study is testing a new locked device designed to help patients use opioid pain medications more safely after spine surgery. Thirty patients having a common back operation will be split into two groups: one gets the new smart dispenser that unlocks only at scheduled times via a phone app, and the other gets a standard pill bottle. Researchers will track how many pills patients use, their pain levels, and their satisfaction with the device over two weeks to see if this approach helps manage pain while reducing risks.
