Recruiting studies
- NCT07866885Recruiting
Spinal vs general anesthesia for laparoscopic hernia repair
This study compares two ways to manage pain during laparoscopic inguinal hernia surgery: spinal anesthesia (numbing the lower body) versus general anesthesia plus a nerve block (TAP block). The goal is to see which approach provides better pain control and recovery.

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 - NCT07458282Recruiting
Testing a long-lasting numbing medicine for pain after laparoscopic surgery
This trial is testing if a special numbing medicine called liposomal bupivacaine, given as a nerve block during surgery, can help reduce pain after laparoscopic procedures like gallbladder removal or hernia repair. It might help you feel better with less need for strong painkillers.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–64 - NCT07442188Recruiting
Comparing two numbing blocks for hernia surgery pain
This trial compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) given before hernia surgery to see which one works better for pain after the operation. The blocks target muscles around the belly area to help you feel less pain and recover more comfortably.
Ankara, Yenimahalle\AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT07423910Recruiting
Numbing injections for better recovery after hernia surgery
This study looks at two types of numbing injections (TAP and RS blocks) to see which helps people recover better after groin hernia surgery. If you are having a planned single-side hernia repair, you might qualify to join.
TampereAges 18 years+ - NCT07388953Recruiting
Nerve block for better pain relief after colon surgery
This study tests adding a special nerve block (peripheral autonomic block) to a standard abdominal wall block to see if it provides better pain relief after minimally invasive left-sided colon surgery. It may help patients experience less pain and use fewer pain medications.
Belo Horizonte, Minas GeraisAges 18–80 - NCT07366138Recruiting
Nerve blocks for pain after sleeve gastrectomy surgery
This trial compares two ultrasound-guided nerve blocks to manage pain after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. If you are having this weight-loss surgery, these blocks might help reduce your need for pain medicine and improve your recovery.
Banhā, BenhaAges 18–65 - NCT07351253Recruiting
Nerve block comparison for open appendix surgery
This study tests two types of nerve blocks (Erector Spinae Plane Block and Lateral Transversus Abdominis Plane Block) to see which provides better pain relief after open appendectomy. This could help reduce pain and the need for stronger painkillers after surgery.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 21 years+ - NCT07289321Enrolling by invitation
Pain relief study for robotic prostate surgery
This trial tests if adding tramadol and magnesium to a local anesthetic (ropivacaine) improves pain control after robotic prostate removal. It may help reduce the need for strong painkillers after surgery.
Athens, AtticaAges 40–80 - NCT07280949Recruiting
Pain relief study for laparoscopic colon surgery
This study tests a new combination of pain blocks for people having laparoscopic (keyhole) colon or rectal surgery. The goal is to see if adding a back muscle block to the standard abdominal wall block provides better pain relief.
Cairo, GovernorateAges 18–90 - 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+ - NCT07264699Recruiting
Guided nerve block for hernia repair pain control
This trial tests whether a visually guided nerve block (TAP block) during laparoscopic hernia repair reduces pain and improves recovery. If you are having planned hernia surgery, this study may help you experience less pain after the procedure.
