Laparoscopy for unexplained abdominal pain
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial is for people with abdominal pain that doctors haven't been able to find a cause for. It uses a small camera (laparoscopy) to look inside the belly to find the source of the pain.

This study looks at how often an endoscopy (a camera test to look inside the stomach and gut) finds a medical reason for long-term belly pain in children aged 6 to 18. It may help if your child has pain that does not go away and has worrying signs, or if treatments like acid-reducing medicine or diet changes have not worked.
This trial tests a laparoscopic surgical system for gynecological and remote surgeries. It may help patients who need minimally invasive surgery and can follow the study plan.
This study tests different combinations of pain medicines to find the best way to manage pain after laparoscopic abdominal surgery while helping your bowels recover quickly. It may help you have a smoother recovery with less discomfort.
This study compares whether a minimally invasive surgery to remove endometriosis tissue helps relieve pelvic pain, or causes unwanted effects. You may be asked to rate your pain and follow the study plan around the time of surgery.
This study looks at pain in people with or without endometriosis who are having laparoscopic surgery. Researchers want to understand more about pelvic pain by collecting information before, during, and after surgery.
This study compares two different nerve-block pain-relief techniques to help manage pain after laparoscopic abdominal surgery (minimally invasive surgery using small incisions). Researchers want to see which method works better and causes fewer side effects.
