Pain relief without opioids for gallbladder surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 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 gives morphine during gallbladder removal surgery to see how it affects pain afterward. It may help you have less pain and recover more comfortably.
This study tests a nerve block for pain after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. It compares different volumes of numbing medicine to find the best dose.
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.
This trial tests if adding dexmedetomidine or magnesium to a standard numbing medication (bupivacaine) injected into the belly during gallbladder surgery can improve pain control and recovery. It aims to find a better way to manage pain after surgery.
