Back surgery breakthrough? steroid patch aims to slash pain and opioid dependence
NCT ID NCT05058287
Summary
This study is testing if applying a steroid directly to the spine during a common back surgery helps patients recover better. Researchers will compare patients who get the steroid to those who get a placebo to see if it reduces pain, shortens hospital stays, helps people return to work faster, and lowers the need for opioid painkillers after surgery. The trial involves 150 adults undergoing surgery for spinal stenosis.
