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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- 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).
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You have not been using strong painkillers (opioids) for a long time before surgery.

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 study compares two ways of providing anesthesia during weight-loss surgery: one that uses opioid painkillers and one that does not. The goal is to see if avoiding opioids leads to better recovery and fewer complications after surgery.
This study compares two types of anesthesia for weight-loss surgery: one that uses standard painkillers (opioids) and one that avoids these drugs. The goal is to see which approach works better for recovery and pain control.
This study compares two ways to manage pain during and after your weight-loss surgery: one uses a nerve block (thoracic paravertebral block) to numb the area without opioid painkillers, and the other uses standard anesthesia. The goal is to see if the nerve block method reduces pain and improves recovery without the side effects of opioids.
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.
