RECRUITING

Rib Fracture Cryoanalgesia

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Rib fractures lead to poor patient outcomes and even death 3. Data suggests effective pain management is crucial to obtain favorable outcomes 4, 5Current outpatient treatment modalities are limited to oral or topical medications with low efficacy and high risk for opioid dependence. In-patient management with a thoracic epidural TEA is largely considered the gold standard, but the risks of TEA may outweigh the benefits 6 to 8.
