Comparing two pain meds for gallbladder surgery recovery
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two pain medications, fentanyl and remifentanil, used during laparoscopic gallbladder removal. The goal is to see which one helps you recover bowel function faster and control pain better after surgery.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial compares two drugs, ketamine and fentanyl, added to the standard numbing medicine (bupivacaine) to see which works better for pain control during laparoscopic gallbladder removal. Both are injected into the belly area during surgery.
This study gives morphine during gallbladder removal surgery to see how it affects pain afterward. It may help you have less pain and recover more comfortably.
This study compares two different nerve-blocking techniques to help manage pain after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. Both methods use ultrasound guidance to deliver numbing medication near nerves, and the trial tests which approach works better for pain relief and overall recovery.
This trial tests two ways of giving pain medicine during gallbladder removal surgery. One method uses standard local anesthetic injection, the other uses a special injection technique that may provide better pain relief.
This study tests whether a pain-relief medication called Anrikefon, given before laparoscopic gallbladder removal surgery, helps reduce pain after the procedure. Laparoscopic surgery uses small cuts and a camera, so it's less invasive than open surgery.
This study compares two types of numbing injections given during laparoscopic gallbladder removal surgery to see which one reduces the need for strong pain medications during the procedure. You would receive one of these two injection methods as part of your anesthesia care.
