This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which one provides better pain relief after surgery to remove a kidney. If you are having this surgery, the results may help your doctors choose the best way to manage your pain.
This trial compares two ultrasound-guided nerve blocks to see which one provides better pain relief for patients undergoing open kidney removal (nephrectomy). If you have kidney cancer and are scheduled for this surgery, you may be able to join.
This trial tests two different types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) to see which one works better at controlling pain after open kidney removal surgery. You would receive one of these blocks during surgery to help reduce pain and the amount of strong pain medication you need afterward.
This trial compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) given during kidney removal surgery to see which better controls pain afterward. Both are alternatives to general anesthesia alone.
This study compares two different pain-block methods (called PQLB and TFPB) to see which works better for people donating a kidney through a minimally invasive hand-assisted laparoscopic surgery. If you're a kidney donor, you may get better pain relief with one of these blocks.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (injections near nerves) to see which one works better for pain relief after kidney stone surgery. It aims to find a more effective way to manage pain, which could help you feel more comfortable after surgery.
