Lower pressure vs. standard pressure for laparoscopic gynecologic surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Digestive system, Pain clinical trials.
This trial compares using lower gas pressure during minimally invasive gynecologic surgery to the standard pressure. The goal is to see if lower pressure reduces pain and speeds recovery after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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.
This trial tests a long-acting painkiller injected during surgery to see if it reduces pain after keyhole (laparoscopic) procedures like gallbladder removal, hernia repair, or appendix removal. It may help you need fewer opioids and recover more comfortably.
This trial tests if numbing medicine (bupivacaine with epinephrine) placed over the diaphragm during laparoscopic surgery can reduce shoulder and other pain. It may help patients undergoing gynecologic laparoscopy recover more comfortably.
This study compares two different gas pressures used during laparoscopic surgery to see if lower pressure reduces shoulder pain afterward. It may help if you're having surgery to remove an ovary, fallopian tube, or ovarian cyst.
This trial compares two different gas pressure levels used during laparoscopic hysterectomy (a minimally invasive surgery to remove the uterus) to see which one causes less pain after the procedure. It may help you and your doctor choose the best pressure for your surgery.
This study tests whether using a lower dose of a numbing medicine during laparoscopic pelvic surgery helps control pain after surgery with fewer side effects. It may help you recover with less discomfort if you are having this type of surgery.
