Nerve blocks for pain after gallbladder surgery
This trial tests a combination of numbing injections (nerve blocks) given during gallbladder removal surgery to see if they reduce pain after the operation. If you are having this laparoscopic surgery, this approach may help you recover with less discomfort.
