NCT ID NCT07385872
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new type of nerve block catheter designed to stay in place better than current ones. Researchers will place the catheter near a nerve in the leg a few days before a scheduled amputation and check if it moves. The study involves 15 adults and aims to see if the new design is easy to use and prevents slipping.

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 lead to better pain management during leg amputation by reducing catheter displacement.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early feasibility study with only 15 people and no comparison group. The catheter may not perform better than existing ones.
