Numbing injections for pain after gallbladder surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether two different numbing injections (M-TAPA and TAPB) placed before surgery can reduce pain after keyhole gallbladder removal, compared to standard care. If you qualify, the injections may help you feel less discomfort after the operation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are scheduled for keyhole gallbladder removal (laparoscopic cholecystectomy).
- Your anesthesia team has rated your health as ASA I, II, or III (mild to moderate health issues, but stable).
- You are not taking blood thinners (anticoagulants) and do not have a bleeding disorder.
- No infection or allergy where the numbing injection will be given, and no allergy to local anesthetics.

This study tests two different numbing injections (nerve blocks) for pain relief during gallbladder removal. It aims to see which one works better.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (M-TAPA and TAP) to see which provides better pain relief after laparoscopic appendix removal. If you are having this surgery, you may experience less pain and need fewer painkillers.
This study compares two different nerve-blocking techniques to help manage pain after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. Both methods use ultrasound guidance to deliver numbing medication near nerves, and the trial tests which approach works better for pain relief and overall recovery.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (TAP and M-TAPA) to see which one provides better pain relief after planned laparoscopic gallbladder removal. Both blocks are injections of numbing medicine around your abdomen to help control pain after surgery.
This trial compares two types of numbing injections (ESP block and TAP block) to see which provides better pain relief after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. If you're having this surgery, the results could help improve how your pain is managed afterward.
This study tests a special nerve block called M-TAPA to see if it helps control pain during and after gallbladder removal surgery. It might offer better pain relief with fewer side effects.
