This study tests if adding labetalol, magnesium sulfate, or lidocaine during gallbladder removal surgery can reduce the need for opioid painkillers after surgery. It aims to improve pain control and reduce opioid side effects.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to manage pain after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. The goal is to find which method provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This trial tests whether flushing the abdomen with a numbing medication (bupivacaine) during minimally invasive gallbladder surgery reduces pain after the procedure compared to using saline (salt water) alone.
This study looks at whether using a pain diary can help people manage pain better after gallbladder removal surgery. If you are having this surgery for the first time and can read and write in Turkish, you may be able to join.
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 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.
