Understanding How Parents and Doctors View Methadone for Surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study asks caregivers and medical staff about their views on methadone use during children's outpatient surgery. Your feedback helps researchers understand concerns and improve communication around pain management.

This study tests whether methadone, an opioid medication, can safely manage pain after elective spine surgery. Researchers want to see if it works well and is safe for patients staying overnight in the hospital after their procedure.
This trial tests whether a single dose of methadone given during heart surgery can improve pain control and recovery. It may be an option for people having planned (not emergency) heart surgery.
This trial tests if methadone given through a vein can control pain better after heart surgery done through a breastbone incision. It may be an option for adults having planned heart surgery who are expected to wake up and breathe on their own within 12 hours.
This study compares two strong painkillers—methadone given through an IV versus morphine injected into the spine—to see which provides better pain relief and recovery after major abdominal surgery. It may help you if you're having open surgery and want less pain afterward.
This study tests different ways to manage pain after tonsillectomy in children. The goal is to find better pain relief options.
This trial tests whether methadone—a strong pain medication—helps manage pain better after intermediate-complexity surgery. If it works, it could reduce pain and the need for other opioids after your operation.
