ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06893848Recruiting
Culture Care program for mobility after chest or belly surgery
This study tests a program called 'Culture Care' that helps patients move more after chest or belly surgery. It aims to see if the program improves how much you walk and move during your hospital stay.
NeuchâtelAges 18 years+ - NCT06454305Recruiting
Breathing exercises after abdominal surgery
This study tests two breathing techniques (ACBT and blow bottle) to help people recover lung function after abdominal surgery under general anesthesia. If you have trouble coughing up mucus or need extra oxygen after surgery, you may benefit.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 30–50 - NCT06182215Recruiting
Brain function after major abdominal surgery in older adults
This trial studies whether older adults experience thinking or memory changes after major abdominal surgery. It aims to understand these changes so doctors can better support recovery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 65–90 - NCT06978179Recruiting
Nerve blocks for pain after lower belly surgery
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (QL block vs TAP block) to see which one provides better pain relief after lower abdominal surgery. If you are having this surgery, you may be able to join and receive one of these blocks to help manage your pain.
SohagAges 18–65 - NCT07394816Recruiting
Can ultrasound-guided pain blocks reduce lung complications after abdominal surgery?
This study tests whether using ultrasound-guided pain blocks (fascial plane blocks) during major abdominal surgery can reduce lung complications after surgery, especially in older adults. It may offer better pain control and faster recovery.
Yenimahalle, AnkaraAges 65 years+ - NCT06809036Recruiting
Mobilisation and breathing exercises after abdominal surgery
This study tests whether a supervised program of moving and breathing exercises helps patients recover faster after open or robot-assisted abdominal surgery. It may reduce complications and speed up return to daily activities.
GothenburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07510451Recruiting
Predicting low blood pressure during major aortic surgery
This trial tests a new monitoring tool that predicts drops in blood pressure before they happen during major aortic surgery. It may help doctors keep your blood pressure more stable during the procedure.
Poznan, PoznańAges 18 years+ - NCT07199881Recruiting
Breathing effort study after major abdominal surgery
This study checks how your breathing effort changes with different levels of breathing support from the ventilator after major abdominal surgery. It helps doctors find the best settings to help you breathe comfortably while you recover.
Bangkok, BangkoknoiAges 18 years+ - NCT07359755Recruiting
Vaginal vs. robotic mesh surgery for apical prolapse
This study compares two ways to fix a type of pelvic organ prolapse (when organs drop into the vagina): using mesh through vaginal surgery versus using mesh through robotic-assisted abdominal surgery. The goal is to see if the robotic method works as well as the vaginal method.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT07370974Recruiting
Hypnosis for anxiety before abdominal surgery
This study tests if a short hypnosis session before abdominal surgery can help reduce anxiety. It may be an option if you are scheduled for such a surgery and have no major psychological conditions.
Kenitra, ProvinceAges 18–80 - NCT07047729Recruiting
Early vs. standard eating after emergency bowel surgery
This trial compares two different ways of starting to eat after emergency bowel surgery: one group begins eating earlier than usual, and the other follows the standard timing. The goal is to see which approach helps you recover faster with fewer problems.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 18 years+ - NCT07611721Recruiting
Testing a glucose monitor in critically ill surgery patients
This study tests whether a wearable glucose monitor (Dexcom G7) works well in patients in intensive care after major abdominal surgery or organ transplant who need insulin therapy. The monitor measures blood sugar continuously to help doctors manage insulin doses more safely.
PragueAges 18 years+ - NCT07303855Recruiting
Better fluid management after major abdominal surgery
This study compares two ways of giving fluids to people after major abdominal surgery in the ICU. It will see if using a measure of how much blood the heart pumps (cardiac index) is better than the usual method based on vein pressure.
Jakarta Pusat, DKI JakartaAges 18–65 - NCT07110051Recruiting
Pain relief after abdominal surgery in children with cancer
This trial compares two pain medicines, nalbuphine and tramadol, to see which works better for children with cancer after abdominal surgery. The goal is to find the safest and most effective way to manage pain.

Ai study predicting risks after aortic aneurysm repair
This trial uses artificial intelligence (a computer program) to predict complications after a minimally invasive surgery to fix a bulging blood vessel in the belly (abdominal aortic aneurysm). It may help doctors better understand your recovery.
La RochelleAges 18 years+ - NCT07272577Recruiting
Nerve block for pain after laparoscopic abdominal surgery
This study tests a nerve block (erector spinae plane block) to see if it helps reduce pain after laparoscopic abdominal surgery. If you're having keyhole surgery, you may receive the block along with standard anesthesia.
AsyutAges 18 years+ - NCT07036393Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for abdominal surgery?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 133 recruiting abdominal surgery studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a abdominal surgery trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a abdominal surgery trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
