Summary

This study tests whether giving lidocaine through an IV during surgery can lower the amount of opioids needed for pain in children aged 3-18 having arm fracture repair. Half the children will get lidocaine, half a placebo, and researchers will compare opioid use and pain scores. The goal is to find a safer, multimodal way to manage pain after surgery.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
lidocaine infusion
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a safer, opioid-sparing pain management option for children undergoing arm fracture surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial (90 participants) and results may not apply to all children. Lidocaine can cause side effects like dizziness or rare toxicity.
