AI tool for better pain care after surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests if an artificial intelligence program can help identify patients who are at higher risk for long-term pain after surgery. If you qualify, you may receive extra support before and after your surgery to improve your recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial looks at how well a pain-control plan works after certain orthopedic surgeries and how it affects recovery and patient-reported outcomes. It may help determine what level of pain relief is meaningful to patients after surgery.
This study tests a program to help prevent long-term pain after surgery in children and teenagers. It aims to see if extra support can reduce the chance of pain lasting for months.
This trial compares two ways to follow up after surgery that uses a special pain-relief pump (continuous nerve block): one uses artificial intelligence, the other uses automated messages. The goal is to see which is better for checking on patients and helping them manage pain.
This study looks at whether a clinical pharmacist working with your surgical team can improve how your pain is managed before and after orthopedic surgery, such as hip or knee replacement. If you join, you will receive extra attention from a pharmacist to help personalize your pain medicine plan.
This trial tests a method to prevent chronic pain after surgery in people who already take opioids regularly. It may help reduce long-term pain and improve recovery.
This trial tests a home-based “pain coaching” system (using a phone app and a TENS device) to help people manage pain after lower-risk outpatient plastic surgery. It may help you feel more in control of pain at home using guided exercises and device-based pain relief.
