Reducing inflammation in weight loss surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a method to control inflammation during bariatric surgery. It may help patients recover better and have fewer complications.

- You are scheduled for bariatric surgery.
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- Your body mass index (BMI) is 30 or higher.
- You have an ASA physical status of II or III (mild to serious medical condition, but not life-threatening).

This trial compares two types of anesthesia during bariatric surgery: one that avoids opioids and one that uses them. The goal is to see which approach leads to a better recovery.
This study compares two anesthesia methods—inhaled gas (desflurane) versus IV medication (TIVA)—during weight-loss surgery to see how each affects your body's stress response and recovery. The goal is to understand which approach may be safer and more comfortable for patients having bariatric surgery.
This trial compares two ways of managing pain during weight-loss surgery: one uses opioids (strong painkillers), the other uses a combination of non-opioid medicines. It aims to see which approach leads to a safer and smoother recovery.
This study compares two ways to manage pain during weight-loss surgery (sleeve gastrectomy) without using opioid drugs. One method uses a nerve block (paravertebral block) and the other uses a combination of non-opioid medications. The goal is to see which approach reduces pain and side effects better.
This trial studies whether an opioid-free or opioid-sparing care pathway can improve comfort and outcomes for adults undergoing laparoscopic weight-loss surgery. It may help people avoid side effects from opioid pain medicines while still managing pain safely.
This trial studies an “opioid-free” anesthesia and pain plan during planned open surgery for an abdominal aortic aneurysm. The goal is to see whether this approach reduces surgical stress and pain compared with usual care.
