This study tests a new pain medicine called oliceridine after laparoscopic upper abdominal surgery. It aims to improve pain control and recovery compared to standard opioids.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–70 - NCT07524673Recruiting
Comparing two nerve blocks for chest surgery pain
This study tests two different numbing techniques (nerve blocks) to see which one works better for pain relief after minimally invasive chest surgery. Both methods inject medicine near nerves to reduce post-surgery pain.
Sivas, MerkezAges 18 years+ - NCT07519733Recruiting
Exercise Testing Before High-Risk Surgery
This study tests whether a simple exercise test before surgery can help doctors better predict and prevent complications in older adults undergoing major operations. You'll do a gentle exercise test on a stationary bike or treadmill to measure your fitness level.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 45 years+ - NCT07519057Recruiting
Carbohydrate drink before liver transplant surgery
This study tests whether drinking a carbohydrate solution before planned liver transplant surgery helps patients recover better afterward. Researchers believe it may reduce complications and improve healing.
WarsawAges 18 years+ - NCT07516886Recruiting
Early PSA levels after prostate surgery and cancer outcomes
This study looks at how PSA (a blood marker) levels measured shortly after prostate removal surgery can predict whether cancer comes back. Researchers hope this helps doctors identify patients who may need closer monitoring or additional treatment after surgery.
Kaunas, KaunoAges 18 years+ - NCT07517679RecruitingPhase 4
Methadone for Pain After Spine Surgery
This study tests whether methadone, an opioid medication, can safely manage pain after elective spine surgery. Researchers want to see if it works well and is safe for patients staying overnight in the hospital after their procedure.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18–120 - NCT07524062Recruiting
Thermal Imaging to Predict Surgical Wound Healing
This study uses thermal imaging (a camera that detects heat patterns on skin) to predict how well skin wounds will heal after surgery to remove suspicious or cancerous skin lesions. The goal is to identify which patients might have healing problems early so doctors can provide extra care.
Leuven, Vlaams BrabantAges 18 years+ - NCT07524387Recruiting
Nerve blocks for better leg strength after knee replacement
This study compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) used during knee replacement surgery to see which one helps your thigh muscle recover strength faster. Both are standard care options; the trial tests which works better for early movement after surgery.
Ichinomiya, Aichi-kenAges 20 years+ - NCT07516990Recruiting
Parathyroid Tissue Injection During Thyroid Surgery
This study tests whether injecting parathyroid tissue into the forearm during thyroid surgery helps prevent low calcium levels after surgery. Parathyroid glands control calcium in your body, and they can be damaged during thyroid surgery.
Vienna, State of ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT07513740Recruiting
Pain relief methods for hip fracture surgery
This trial compares two different nerve-block techniques (pain-relief injections) to see which one works better for patients having surgery to repair a broken hip. Both methods numb the area around the hip so you feel less pain during and after surgery.
Erzincan, Merkez/TürkiyeAges 18–75 - NCT07514637RecruitingPhase 2
Pain relief medication after pancreas surgery
This study tests a new drug called Anricfen (ariceptin) to help reduce pain and speed recovery after pancreas removal surgery. Participants receive injections for three days after surgery to see if the medication safely controls pain better than standard care.
NanjingAges 18–80 - 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 - NCT07511985Recruiting
Managing Pain After Knee Replacement Surgery
This study looks at how "rebound pain" (increased pain when pain medication wears off) affects long-term pain after total knee replacement. Researchers want to understand this connection and potentially improve pain management strategies for knee surgery patients.
Konya, MeramAges 18 years+ - NCT07513389RecruitingPhase 2
HPV throat cancer trial skipping radiation with blood tests
This study tests whether patients with a specific type of HPV-positive throat cancer can safely skip radiation after surgery by using blood tests to monitor for cancer recurrence. The goal is to reduce side effects while keeping patients cancer-free.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07510269Recruiting
Nerve blocks for pain control during mastectomy
This study tests two different numbing shots for the chest wall to see which one provides better pain relief during and after mastectomy surgery.
Bursa, NilüferAges 18–75 - NCT07512141Recruiting
Single vs. Double Drains After Breast Cancer Surgery
This study compares using one drain versus two drains to collect fluid after breast cancer removal surgery. The goal is to see which approach works better and causes fewer problems during recovery.
