Study for long-term pain after surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study is for people who have chronic post-surgical pain and have a planned surgery on a leg or the spine. The goal is to better understand this long-term pain and what may help manage it after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a diagnosis of chronic postsurgical pain
- You have a surgery planned on your leg or spine (lower extremity or spine orthopedic surgery)
- A parent or guardian can read and speak English (or you can, if you’re not a minor)

This study tests a program to help children and teens aged 8 to 18 avoid chronic pain after surgery. It may help reduce pain that lasts long after the operation.
This study looks at people having planned open-heart surgery to understand why some develop long-term pain afterward. By joining, you help researchers find ways to predict and prevent chronic pain, which could improve recovery for future patients.
This study follows children and teens to learn how pain can last after planned orthopedic (bone) surgery in the hospital. It may help doctors better understand which kids are more likely to have long-lasting pain and how to support them.
This study looks at children who have certain types of surgery to understand who might have ongoing pain, what causes it, and how it affects them over time.
This study looks at how common long-term pain is in children and teens after they have surgery. It aims to find out who might be more likely to have ongoing pain so doctors can help prevent it.
This study tests whether adding pain neuroscience education to standard physical therapy before spinal surgery helps reduce pain and disability after surgery. This could help you recover better by understanding how pain works and learning coping strategies before your operation.
