Finding the best pain med dose for gallbladder surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial finds the right dose of a pain medication (sufentanil) for adults having planned gallbladder removal surgery. You take part by getting the drug during surgery so doctors can find the safest and most effective amount.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for a laparoscopic cholecystectomy (non-emergency gallbladder removal).
- You are between ages 18 and 65.
- Your BMI is between 22 and 30 kg/m².
- You have no allergies to the study pain medications (like sufentanil).
- You do not regularly drink alcohol or use tobacco/sedative drugs.

This trial tests whether adding fentanyl or nalbuphine to a common numbing medicine (bupivacaine) during gallbladder removal surgery can improve pain relief afterward. It is for generally healthy adults who are not pregnant and have no serious gallbladder problems or drug allergies.
This study compares two ways to manage pain during laparoscopic gallbladder removal: one using opioids and one without. The goal is to see if pain control can be as effective without opioids, which may have fewer side effects.
This trial compares two pain medicines added to a standard numbing shot (bupivacaine) for gallbladder surgery done through small incisions (laparoscopic cholecystectomy). The goal is to see which medicine provides better pain control after surgery.
This trial tests two ways of giving pain medicine during gallbladder removal surgery. One method uses standard local anesthetic injection, the other uses a special injection technique that may provide better pain relief.
This study tests whether a pain-relief medication called Anrikefon, given before laparoscopic gallbladder removal surgery, helps reduce pain after the procedure. Laparoscopic surgery uses small cuts and a camera, so it's less invasive than open surgery.
This study tests three different ways to control pain during gallbladder removal surgery: numbing the skin with bupivacaine, a nerve block in the back, or a small dose of morphine into the spinal fluid. The goal is to see which provides the best pain relief after surgery.
