Nerve block pain relief for mastectomy surgery
Part of Cancer, Pain, Skin clinical trials.
This study tests a pain-relieving nerve block given during mastectomy (breast removal surgery) to see how it affects post-operative pain. It may help reduce the need for strong painkillers after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
