Gene test could predict which kids suffer most from surgery pain meds
NCT ID NCT01140724
Summary
This study aims to understand why some children have serious side effects or poor pain relief from morphine after surgery. Researchers will collect blood samples from 1,200 children having tonsil surgery to look for genetic differences. The goal is to find genetic markers that can predict a child's response to pain medication, helping doctors personalize treatment in the future.
