This study tests if giving pain medicine in a different area of the abdomen can reduce pain after weight-loss surgery. It may help you feel more comfortable after your sleeve gastrectomy.
This study compares two ways to block pain after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (a weight-loss surgery). Researchers test different nerve-blocking injections to see which one works better for pain control after the procedure.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after laparoscopic bariatric surgery: one method involves numbing medicine placed near the surgery site, and the other uses an ultrasound-guided injection near the back. It aims to find which option works better for recovery in people with moderate to severe obesity.
