Recruiting studies
- NCT07672145Recruiting
Gallbladder removal: belly button vs. upper belly cut
This trial compares two ways to remove the gallbladder during laparoscopic surgery: through the belly button or through a cut just below the breastbone. It aims to find which method causes less pain and recovers faster.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–60 - NCT06656299Recruiting
Nerve block for gallbladder removal surgery
This study tests a nerve block called EOIB to see if it helps reduce pain after gallbladder removal surgery. If you are having planned gallbladder surgery, this might be a good option for you.
IstanbulAges 18–65 - NCT07666646Recruiting
Nerve block comparison for lung function after gallbladder surgery
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks to see which one better preserves lung function after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. It may help patients recover breathing ability more quickly after surgery.
Kayseri, KocasinanAges 18–70 - NCT07655323Recruiting
RISS vs. ESP Block for Gallbladder Surgery Pain
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (RISS and ESP) to manage pain after gallbladder removal surgery. It aims to find which block provides better pain relief.
Bursa, NilüferAges 18–75 - NCT07650760RecruitingPhase 4
Pain Relief After Gallbladder Removal Surgery
This trial tests whether flushing the abdomen with a numbing medication (bupivacaine) during minimally invasive gallbladder surgery reduces pain after the procedure compared to using saline (salt water) alone.
Wāh, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–60 - NCT07638527RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing nausea-prevention drugs after gallbladder surgery
This study tests two different medication combinations to prevent nausea and vomiting after laparoscopic gallbladder removal surgery. You'll receive either ondansetron plus metoclopramide, or dexamethasone plus metoclopramide, and researchers will track how quickly you need rescue medication if nausea occurs.
Faisalābad, Punjab ProvinceAges 18 years+ - NCT07566663Recruiting
Pain Relief Before Gallbladder Removal Surgery
This study tests whether a pain-relief medication called Anrikefon, given before laparoscopic gallbladder removal surgery, helps reduce pain after the procedure. Laparoscopic surgery uses small cuts and a camera, so it's less invasive than open surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT07507799Recruiting
Comparing low vs standard dose block for gallbladder surgery
This trial tests two different amounts of a numbing medicine (local anesthetic) given during gallbladder removal surgery. The goal is to see if a lower dose works just as well for pain control.
El Fayoum Qesm, Faiyum GovernorateAges 18–65 - NCT07513012Enrolling by invitation
Pain Relief Methods After Gallbladder Removal Surgery
This study compares two ways of numbing the abdomen during gallbladder removal surgery to see which one works better for pain relief. One method numbs one side of your belly, and the other numbs both sides.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–80 - NCT07504705Recruiting
Comparing two nerve blocks for pain after gallbladder surgery
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (intertransverse process block and erector spinae plane block) to see which provides better pain relief after gallbladder removal surgery using small incisions (laparoscopic cholecystectomy).
Konya, KonyaAges 18 years+ - NCT07488078RecruitingPhase 1
IV fluids for recovery after gallbladder surgery
This trial compares giving more or less IV fluids during gallbladder removal surgery to see which helps patients recover faster. It may help you heal better after your operation.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–60 - NCT06753500RecruitingPhase 4
Numbing medicine during gallbladder surgery
This trial tests whether giving a special numbing medicine during gallbladder surgery helps reduce pain. It is for adults having laparoscopic (minimally invasive) gallbladder removal.
Barranquilla, AtlantivoAges 18 years+ - NCT07445854Recruiting
Sensory mapping after nerve blocks for gallbladder surgery
This trial measures how different regional anesthesia techniques affect sensation on the skin. It may help doctors understand how to better manage pain after gallbladder surgery.
Samsun, IlkadımAges 18–75 - NCT07413068Recruiting
Comparing treatments for gallstones and bile duct stones
This trial looks at three different ways to treat people who have both gallstones and stones in the bile duct. It aims to find which approach works best and with the fewest complications.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT07328893RecruitingPhase 4
Magnesium for pain after gallbladder surgery
This trial tests whether a single dose of magnesium (given through an IV before surgery) can reduce the need for painkillers after gallbladder removal surgery. If you are a healthy adult getting this surgery, you may experience less pain and use fewer pain medications.
Jamshedpur, JharkhandAges 18–65 - NCT07276646Recruiting
Pain relief after gallbladder surgery: two nerve blocks compared
This trial compares two anesthetic nerve blocks to see which one reduces the need for opioid pain medicine after gallbladder removal. If you are having laparoscopic gallbladder surgery, this study may help you recover with less pain and fewer opioid side effects.
ZagazigAges 21–64 - NCT07245108Recruiting
The Pro-Chol Study: Managing gallstones before surgery
This study looks at patients with uncomplicated gallstones who are scheduled for gallbladder removal surgery. It aims to improve care by comparing different approaches to managing your stones before surgery.
Copenhagen, BispebjergAges 18 years+ - NCT06918626Recruiting
Comparing two bile duct stone removal approaches during gallbladder surgery
This trial compares two ways of checking for and removing stones from the main bile duct during gallbladder surgery. One method uses a special scope (SpyGlass) during the operation, and the other does an MRI first. The goal is to see which approach is better for people with gallstone-related inflammation of the gallbladder who might have stones in the bile duct.
Pavia, PaviaAges 18 years+ - NCT06918652Recruiting
Surgery or endoscopy for high-risk gallbladder inflammation
This trial compares two minimally invasive treatments for people with severe gallbladder inflammation caused by gallstones. It aims to see which approach better helps the immune system and reduces risks for those who are too sick for standard surgery.
Pavia, PaviaAges 18 years+ - NCT05169073Recruiting
Virtual reality practice for gallbladder removal surgery
This trial tests whether virtual reality training can help surgeons perform laparoscopic gallbladder removal more effectively. It is meant for people scheduled for planned (non-emergency) gallbladder surgery due to gallstones or long-term gallbladder inflammation.
BaselAges 22–45 - NCT07182097Recruiting
Comparing two pain meds for gallbladder surgery recovery
This study compares two pain medications, fentanyl and remifentanil, used during laparoscopic gallbladder removal. The goal is to see which one helps you recover bowel function faster and control pain better after surgery.
Karatay, KonyaAges 18–65 - NCT06934564Recruiting
Cutting unnecessary tests before low-risk surgeries
This study helps surgical teams cut down on unnecessary tests before common low-risk surgeries, like breast lump removal, gallbladder removal, or hernia repair. It aims to improve patient care by reducing extra, unneeded procedures.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06123117Recruiting
Nerve block vs local painkiller for gallbladder surgery recovery
This study compares two ways of giving pain relief after gallbladder removal surgery. It tests if a nerve block (STALL) works better than injecting numbing medicine directly into the surgery site. The goal is to find which method reduces pain and the need for painkillers.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for laparoscopic cholecystectomy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 71 recruiting laparoscopic cholecystectomy 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 laparoscopic cholecystectomy 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 laparoscopic cholecystectomy 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.
