Comparing two pain blocks for gallbladder surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests two different numbing injections (nerve blocks) for pain relief during gallbladder removal. It aims to see which one works better.

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.
This trial compares two different nerve-block techniques (numbing injections near the spine) to see which one better reduces pain after minimally invasive gallbladder removal surgery. You would receive one of these pain-relief methods during surgery to help you feel more comfortable afterward.
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 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 compares two types of nerve blocks (pain-relieving injections) after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. It aims to see which block works better for controlling pain after the procedure.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (intertransverse process block and erector spinae plane block) to see which provides better pain relief after gallbladder removal surgery using small incisions (laparoscopic cholecystectomy).
