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.
