Comparing two pain relief methods for abdominal hysterectomy
Part of Pain, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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 types of pain blocks (TAP block and rectus sheath block) given before a hysterectomy to see which one provides better pain relief and sensation coverage. The goal is to help patients have less pain after surgery.
This study compares two pain medicines, oxycodone and sufentanil, given through a pump you control after a laparoscopic hysterectomy. The goal is to see which one provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
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 study compares two different nerve-blocking injection techniques to help manage pain after laparoscopic hysterectomy (removal of the uterus through small incisions). Both methods numb the area around the spine to reduce post-surgery pain without relying only on strong painkillers.
This trial tests two different types of nerve blocks to see which one provides better pain relief after upper belly surgery. If you are having open surgery on your stomach, liver, pancreas, or spleen, this study may help reduce your need for strong opioids.
