Morphine injection for better recovery after colon cancer surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests if giving a single injection of morphine into the spinal fluid can improve how well you feel and recover after laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer. The morphine is given through a spinal needle before surgery, and it may help control pain during and after the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are scheduled for laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery for colon or rectal cancer
- You agree to receive morphine injection into the spinal fluid and a numbing medicine injected near the tummy muscles after surgery

- You are older than 18 years

This trial tests whether a single injection of morphine into the fluid around the spine can provide better pain relief after planned laparoscopic or robotic abdominal surgery. If you are having one of several types of major abdominal surgery that lasts at least 2 hours and requires a hospital stay of at least 1 day, this study may be an option.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after laparoscopic colon surgery: one uses a morphine injection near the spinal cord, the other uses an epidural catheter for ongoing pain relief. The goal is to find which approach works better with fewer side effects.
This trial tests whether giving morphine into the spinal fluid before open abdominal surgery helps patients recover more comfortably and quickly within an enhanced recovery program. It aims to improve pain control and overall recovery experience.
This study tests whether giving morphine into the spinal fluid during laparoscopic gynecological surgery improves your recovery after surgery. It might help reduce pain and improve your overall comfort after the procedure.
This study compares two pain relief methods—morphine given through a spinal needle versus pain medicine delivered through a tiny tube in the back—after colorectal cancer surgery. It aims to see which approach works better for controlling pain.
This trial tests whether putting morphine into the spinal area during lung surgery can reduce pain after surgery for people having certain minimally invasive lung operations. It aims to improve comfort and possibly reduce the need for other pain medicines.
