New Ultrasound-Guided block aims to ease Post-Surgery back pain
NCT ID NCT07370428
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a new ultrasound-guided nerve block called the Quadro-Iliac Plane Block to manage pain after lumbar spine surgery. Researchers will enroll 80 adults undergoing elective back surgery to see if the block reduces opioid use and improves recovery quality. The goal is to find a better way to control postoperative pain.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Quadro-Iliac Plane Block (a nerve block procedure)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could give patients a better, less painful recovery after back surgery and reduce the need for strong painkillers.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study testing a new technique. It may not prove better than standard care, and there are always risks with any nerve block procedure.
