This study compares two ways of giving pain relief after gallbladder removal surgery: an injection of numbing medicine around the belly muscles (guided by ultrasound) versus a simple injection into the skin near the surgery cuts. The goal is to see which method provides better pain control and comfort after surgery.
This study compares two ways of giving pain relief after gallbladder removal surgery. It tests if a nerve block (STALL) works better than injecting numbing medicine directly into the surgery site. The goal is to find which method reduces pain and the need for painkillers.
This trial tests a numbing injection called a rectointercostal plane block to reduce pain after gallbladder removal surgery. If it works, you may have less pain and need fewer painkillers after the operation.
This trial tests a nerve block injection in the abdominal wall to reduce pain after gallbladder removal surgery. It may help patients recover more comfortably.
This study compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) to see which one provides better pain relief after gallbladder removal surgery. If you join, you will receive one of the two blocks before your surgery, and your pain levels will be monitored afterward.
This trial tests a numbing injection near the ribs to reduce pain after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. It may help you recover with less discomfort.
