This study tests whether a small device that stimulates a nerve in your ear (called vagus nerve stimulation) can reduce the amount of strong pain medication you need after major abdominal surgery. The goal is to see if it helps manage pain better with fewer side effects.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (thoracic interfascial plane block vs. erector spinae plane block) to see which provides better pain relief after a mastectomy. It may help you have less pain and need fewer painkillers after surgery.
