ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying how different concentrations of a medication called Remifentanil affect pain control during a procedure known as uterine fibroid ablation. The main goal is to determine whether a higher concentration of 2.0 ng/mL provides better pain relief compared to a lower concentration of 1.0 ng/mL, while also checking for any side effects. Participants will be women aged 20 to 65 who have been diagnosed with uterine fibroids. They will be divided into two groups, and during the procedure, their pain levels and vital signs will be monitored.
To be eligible for the study, participants should be healthy enough according to specific guidelines and must not have certain medical conditions, such as heart disease or chronic kidney issues. The trial is not yet recruiting participants, but if you qualify, you can expect to be part of an important research effort aimed at improving pain management for women undergoing this common procedure. Your experience will help doctors understand how to provide better care in the future.
