Recruiting studies
- NCT06666985RecruitingPhase 4
Spinal morphine for pain relief after major abdominal surgery
This trial tests whether a single injection of morphine into the fluid around the spine can provide better pain relief after planned laparoscopic or robotic abdominal surgery. If you are having one of several types of major abdominal surgery that lasts at least 2 hours and requires a hospital stay of at least 1 day, this study may be an option.

Nerve blocks for pain relief in kids' upper belly surgery
This trial compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) given during surgery to help reduce pain afterward in children having upper abdominal surgery. The goal is to find which method works better to keep kids more comfortable after their operation.
AlexandriaAges 6–12 - NCT06654635Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided nerve blocks for upper abdominal surgery
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks to control pain after upper abdominal surgery. One block targets the rhomboid intercostal area, and the other targets the erector spinae muscle. This could help reduce pain and improve recovery.

Medicine to prevent confusion after abdominal surgery in seniors
This trial tests giving either lidocaine or dexmedetomidine during abdominal surgery to see if it helps keep the brain healthy and lowers the chance of waking up confused or agitated. It is for older adults having planned abdominal surgery who are otherwise in fairly good health.
Tanta, El-GharbiaAges 65 years+ - NCT05630443Recruiting
Prone position after major abdominal cancer surgery
This study looks at whether placing you in a face-down (prone) position after major abdominal cancer surgery can improve recovery. You may be offered this positioning approach after your operation if it’s safe for you.
GothenburgAges Any age - NCT07021105Enrolling by invitation
Comparing nerve blocks for pain after gynecological surgery
This study tests two different types of nerve blocks (called 'plain blocks') to see which one works better for controlling pain after major gynecological surgery. You would receive one of the blocks before surgery, and then use a pump you control to get extra pain medicine as needed.
Adana, SarıçamAges 18–69 - NCT05268432Recruiting
Testing a surgical help system during camera-based operations
This trial tests new technology that helps surgeons during operations that use cameras, robots, or imaging. If you’re having a surgery with these tools and you can consent, you may be able to participate by supporting the in-the-room demonstration.
Dresden, SaxonyAges 18 years+ - NCT07239713Recruiting
Comparing IV fluids for sepsis after abdominal surgery
This trial compares two types of intravenous fluids (Ringers Lactate vs. Sterofundin/Plasmalyte) to see which works better for sepsis after abdominal surgery. Sepsis is a serious infection that can affect the whole body. This study may help choose the best fluid for recovery.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–80 - NCT07093203Recruiting
Rezafungin for fungal infection in the belly
This trial tests how well rezafungin, an antifungal medicine, spreads in belly fluid when given during surgery for a suspected fungal infection in the abdomen. It aims to see if it's a good treatment option for patients needing abdominal surgery.
Vandœuvre-lès-Nancy, LorraineAges 18 years+ - NCT06731998Recruiting
Improving pain control after cancer surgery
This study compares different methods of managing pain after minimally invasive surgery for abdominal cancers. It aims to find which approach works best to reduce pain and improve recovery.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18–89 - NCT07273136Recruiting
Belly nerve block vs. epidural for pain after cancer surgery
This study compares two ways to manage pain after major abdominal cancer surgery: a numbing injection around the belly muscles (subcostal and lateral TAP block) versus an epidural (a thin tube placed in your back). The goal is to see which provides better pain relief.
AsyutAges 18 years+ - NCT07064200Recruiting
Timing of TAP blocks for abdominal surgery
This study compares two different ways to give a numbing medicine (TAP block) before abdominal surgery to see which one works better for pain control. If you are scheduled for elective abdominal surgery, joining may help doctors find the best way to manage your pain.
New York, New YorkAges 18–65 - NCT07450950Recruiting
Learning from patients before and after major cancer surgery
This trial looks at how people understand health information and what they expect before and after major cancer surgery. The goal is to help doctors better support patients by learning about their hopes and possible regrets.
Copenhagen, CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT06247384Recruiting
Predicting low blood pressure during major abdominal surgery
This trial tests a tool that predicts drops in blood pressure during major abdominal surgery. It may help doctors manage blood pressure better during and after surgery.
Poznan, PoznańAges 18–80 - NCT07533786RecruitingPhase 2
New Pain Medicine After Abdominal Surgery
This study tests a new medication called HSK55718 to treat pain after abdominal surgery. If you're having moderate to severe pain within 4 hours of surgery, this trial may help you get relief and contribute to finding better pain treatments.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT07352683Recruiting
Nerve block for kids having belly surgery
This trial tests a nerve block to reduce pain in children aged 1–15 who are having open abdominal surgery. It aims to see if this approach improves recovery.
UppsalaAges 1–15 - NCT06101511Recruiting
Breathing tube pressure for safer abdominal surgery
This trial is testing if using less air pressure from the breathing machine during abdominal surgery can help prevent lung complications. If you are at higher risk for breathing problems after surgery, this study may help find a safer way to manage your breathing during the operation.
Amsterdam, NoordhollandAges 18–100 - NCT06850844Recruiting
Ventilation management for abdominal laparoscopic surgery
This trial tests a personalized approach to setting ventilator pressure during laparoscopic abdominal surgery, using a special imaging belt to monitor lung function. It aims to reduce breathing complications after surgery, especially for patients at higher risk.
HanoiAges 18 years+ - NCT04136717Recruiting
Test if FreeO2 helps keep oxygen levels in range
This study looks at whether adding FreeO2 can help keep your oxygen saturation (a measure of oxygen in the blood) within a target range while you use breathing support like NIV or CPAP. It may help reduce time spent either too low or too high in oxygen levels.
Québec, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT05375292Recruiting
Pre-surgery fitness program for recovery after aneurysm surgery
This study tests whether a supervised “prehabilitation” program before planned open surgery helps you recover better after abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery. It’s mainly about improving outcomes when you have time to prepare for at least 6 weeks.
ToulouseAges 18–100 - NCT06965595Enrolling by invitation
Physiotherapy after gynecological abdominal surgery
This trial tests different physiotherapy methods to see which helps most with recovery after gynecological abdominal surgery. It may be a good fit if you've recently had a hysterectomy or similar surgery and want to improve your recovery.

Study of HSK55718 for pain after abdominal surgery

Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT07719075Recruiting
Norepinephrine dose for low blood pressure during emergency belly surgery
This trial tests whether a 5 microgram or a 10 microgram dose of norepinephrine works better to treat low blood pressure that happens after starting anesthesia or during emergency abdominal surgery. It may help doctors choose the right dose to keep your blood pressure stable.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 21–65 - NCT07339449Recruiting
Monitoring during surgery to reduce time on a breathing tube
This study tests whether special monitors used during major abdominal surgery can help high-risk patients wake up sooner and need a breathing tube for less time after the operation.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for abdominal surgery?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 132 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.
