BeijingAges 18–65 - NCT07458295Recruiting
Liposomal bupivacaine for pain after gynecologic cancer surgery
This trial tests whether a long-acting numbing medication (liposomal bupivacaine) injected into the abdominal wall can reduce pain after laparoscopic surgery for gynecologic cancer. If effective, it may help patients recover with less discomfort and fewer painkillers.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–64 - NCT07454629Recruiting
BIS monitoring and recovery after gallbladder surgery
This trial tests whether a special monitor that tracks your brain activity during anesthesia can improve how quickly and well you recover after gallbladder removal surgery.
Sakarya, SerdivanAges 18–65 - NCT07446959Recruiting
Smallest effective dose of bupivacaine for chest surgery pain block
This trial tests the smallest amount of bupivacaine (a numbing medicine) needed to control pain after keyhole chest surgery. You will receive a nerve block before surgery, and the goal is to find the best dose with fewer side effects.
BursaAges 18 years+ - NCT07461779RecruitingPhase 4
Oxygen to the healthy lung during lung surgery
This study is testing whether giving extra oxygen to the lung that is not being operated on (the non-dependent lung) during surgery can reduce problems after lung surgery. If you are having lung surgery, this might help you recover better.
MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT07460297Enrolling by invitation
Antibiotic and iodine for infection prevention in breast reconstruction
This trial tests if a combination of a pseudomonas bacteria injection and an iodine solution can help prevent infections in women having immediate breast reconstruction with implants after mastectomy or breast-conserving surgery.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18 years+ - NCT05520151Recruiting
Oral immune-support before kidney or bladder surgery
This trial studies whether an oral immune-modulating product given before major bladder or kidney surgery can lower the risk of postoperative complications. If you’re scheduled for surgery like cystectomy or nephrectomy, it may be an option to help your recovery.
Aulnay-sous-BoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07004218Enrolling by invitation
Ultrasound follow-up after massive rotator cuff tear surgery
This trial uses ultrasound imaging to check how the shoulder heals over the first year after surgery for a large tear in the rotator cuff (the group of tendons that helps lift and rotate your arm). The goal is to better understand recovery and improve care for people with this injury.
Çankaya, AnkaraAges 18–80 - NCT07691619RecruitingPhase 2
Shorter radiation after surgery for thymus cancer
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation therapy (hypofractionated) after surgery for people with Stage II or III thymoma or thymic cancer. The goal is to prevent the tumor from coming back.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07443072Recruiting
Heart rate and brain waves to predict recovery after brain surgery
This study monitors your heart rate and brain waves during and after brain surgery to see if they can help doctors predict how well you will recover. It aims to improve care for future patients.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06598852Recruiting
Nerve block pain relief methods for chest surgery
This trial compares different nerve block techniques to see which provides better pain relief after thoracoscopic (chest scope) surgery. It could help find a way to reduce pain and minimize opioid use during recovery.
Qinhuangdao, HebeiAges 18–70 - NCT05994274Recruiting
Heart transplant, cholesterol, and organ rejection study
This study looks at whether changes in blood fats (cholesterol and triglycerides) after a heart transplant are linked to the risk of organ rejection. It may help doctors better monitor and protect your new heart.

Blood methylation test to guide follow-up after colon cancer surgery
This study checks a special blood test (circulating tumor DNA methylation) to help guide follow-up after surgery for non-metastatic colon cancer. It may help find whether additional treatment or closer monitoring is needed based on the test results.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07386327Recruiting
Comparing diluted bupivacaine for arm surgery nerve block
This trial tests whether mixing the numbing medicine bupivacaine with sugar water (dextrose) or salt water (saline) affects how well a nerve block works for upper arm surgery. The goal is to find which mixture provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
SakaryaAges 18–65 - NCT07378215RecruitingPhase 4
Steroids for better recovery after hip replacement
This study tests whether a single dose of steroids (dexamethasone) given during hip replacement surgery can improve your recovery and quality of life. It may help reduce pain and swelling after the procedure.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for postoperative?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,431 recruiting postoperative 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 postoperative 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 postoperative 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.
