Comparing two pain relievers added to a nerve block for hysterectomy
Treatments studied

This study tests two different pain-relief medicines added to a numbing shot (nerve block) given during hysterectomy surgery. The goal is to see which one works better so you can have less pain after your operation.

This trial tests whether adding two different medications (dexmedetomidine or nalbuphine) to a standard numbing medicine (bupivacaine) can improve pain relief during and after upper limb surgery. The goal is to find a better way to manage pain and reduce side effects.
This study compares two medicines (dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine) added to a nerve block for pain control during and after lower back surgery. It aims to see which one works better for reducing pain and the need for other painkillers.
This study compares two ways to reduce pain after a hysterectomy: a standard nerve block with bupivacaine (a numbing medicine) versus the same block plus ketamine (a medicine that can boost pain relief). The goal is to see if adding ketamine provides better comfort after surgery.
This study compares two types of numbing medicine given through a nerve block before a mastectomy. One is a long-acting version (liposomal bupivacaine) and the other is a standard numbing medicine combined with a sedative (bupivacaine with dexmedetomidine). The goal is to see which provides better pain relief after surgery.
This trial compares two different pain relief methods for women having abdominal hysterectomy (surgery to remove the uterus through a cut in the belly). It may help find a better way to manage pain after surgery.
This study compares two numbing medicines (bupivacaine alone vs. bupivacaine plus dexmedetomidine) to see which provides better pain relief after abdominal surgery. If you are having a planned abdominal operation, this trial may help improve your recovery comfort.
