Cryoneurolysis in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (ACLR)

Sponsor: NYU Langone Health

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The purpose of this research study is to assess whether cryoneurolysis will help control pain after ACLR surgery and decrease the need of opioid medications. The primary objective is to compare postoperative functional recovery between Iovera and sham arms at 1 month after ACLR.

Official title: Evaluating the Efficacy of Preoperative Cryoneurolysis With Iovera on Postoperative Pain, Function, and Opioid Use Following ACL Reconstruction With Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone Autograft

Interventions

DEVICE

Pacira Iovera Cryoneurolysis device

The device includes a hand-held piece, charging port with cord, and disposable components: the nitrous oxide capsule and a small probe called the Smart Tip, which has needles that administer the cold to the nerve. It works immediately by freezing nerves that transmit pain signals to reduce pain transmission after surgery.

DEVICE

Placebo/Sham device

The placebo/sham device looks just like the ioveraº device, but does not contain cyoneurolysis or any treatment.
