Insulin in the belly during laparoscopy to prevent adhesions
Part of Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether giving insulin directly into the belly during laparoscopy (a type of keyhole surgery) can help prevent scar tissue (adhesions) from coming back in women with insulin resistance. If you have insulin resistance and need laparoscopy for pelvic pain or infertility, this trial may help reduce future problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman between 18 and 40 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with insulin resistance (a condition where your body doesn't respond well to insulin).
- You are scheduled for a laparoscopy (a keyhole surgery) for infertility or pelvic pain.
- Your body mass index (BMI) is between 20 and 35.
- You are not pregnant, not breastfeeding, and do not have diabetes that needs medicine.

This trial tests whether giving high-dose insulin around the time of major abdominal surgery can lower the risk of post-surgery infections. If you’re having elective liver, pancreas, or colorectal surgery, the study looks at whether tighter sugar control helps your recovery.
This trial checks if monitoring and treating blood sugar levels during long surgeries can lower the risk of infections and other problems afterward. It is for adults having any surgery expected to last 2 hours or more.
This study tests a new way to give insulin directly into the abdomen (intraperitoneal) for people with type 1 diabetes. It will check how safe and effective a single dose is over 12 hours, using a special procedure to keep blood sugar stable (clamp).
This trial tests two ways to give insulin after gastrointestinal or vascular surgery to see which one leads to fewer wound infections. It may help if you have type 2 diabetes and are having one of these surgeries.
This study tests how your body responds to insulin by using a special test called a pancreatic clamp. It may help researchers understand insulin resistance better and find new ways to treat it.
This study tests whether giving insulin after pancreas surgery helps patients who didn't have diabetes before. The pancreas makes insulin, so removing part of it can affect blood sugar control.
