Condition: Cataract · Cataract (Post-operative Cataract Surgery Follow-up) · Sponsor: University of California, Los Angeles
This randomized controlled trial evaluates whether a standardized perioperative neuroplastic intervention: the STEIN Protocol (Strategies and Techniques for Enhancing Integration and Neuroplasticity), consisting of pain neuroscience education, guided imagery, and paced breathing, reduces intraoperative analgesic and anxiolytic requirements. Secondary outcomes include patient-reported pain, anxiety, satisfaction, and postoperative recovery following cataract surgery. Reduced intraoperative sedative and analgesic requirements may reflect improved patient comfort and autonomic regulation while minimizing medication-related adverse effects.
