ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how a treatment called TEAS (transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation) combined with the pain medication oxycodone can help reduce pain after surgery in women who are having laparoscopic procedures. The goal is to find out if this combination is effective and to improve pain management for patients recovering from surgery.

To be eligible for this trial, participants must be women aged 18 to 65 years who are generally healthy, with a body mass index (BMI) between 18.5 and 30. They should not have any infections where the acupuncture will be applied or serious health issues related to the heart, lungs, liver, or kidneys. If you join the study, you can expect to receive either the TEAS treatment, oxycodone, or a combination of both to help manage your pain after surgery. The trial is currently looking for participants, so if you meet the criteria and are interested, you may want to reach out for more information.
