Ice Pack After Minimally Invasive Hysterectomy Surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether applying ice packs to the abdomen after a minimally invasive hysterectomy (removal of the uterus through the vagina) helps reduce pain and speed recovery. You would be randomly assigned to either receive ice pack treatment or standard care.
