Nerve block for pain after laparoscopic abdominal surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a nerve block (erector spinae plane block) to see if it helps reduce pain after laparoscopic abdominal surgery. If you're having keyhole surgery, you may receive the block along with standard anesthesia.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are having laparoscopic (keyhole) abdominal surgery with general anesthesia.
- Your body mass index (BMI) is between 20 and 30.
- You do not have any bleeding or clotting problems.
- You do not have an infection on your back where the injection would go.
- You do not have chronic pain or take strong painkillers regularly.

This study tests two types of nerve blocks (Erector Spinae Plane Block and Lateral Transversus Abdominis Plane Block) to see which provides better pain relief after open appendectomy. This could help reduce pain and the need for stronger painkillers after surgery.
This trial tests whether a nerve block can provide better pain relief for severe abdominal pain that hasn't improved with standard pain medicine. It's for people who are not candidates for surgery and are in the emergency department or already in the hospital.
This study compares two nerve block techniques to see which provides better pain relief after open gallbladder surgery. It aims to reduce pain and improve recovery.
This trial compares two types of pain blocks (nerve numbing injections) used during laparoscopic abdominal surgery to see which gives better pain relief after the operation. It may help you have less pain and recover more comfortably.
This trial tests whether a nerve block (called an erector spinae plane block) given before surgery can reduce the amount of pain medicine and anesthesia needed during lumbar disc surgery. It may help people have less pain and fewer side effects.
This trial compares two types of pain-block injections (erector spinae plane block versus quadro-iliac plane block) given during lower back surgery to see which controls pain better. It may help you have less pain and need fewer pain medicines after your operation.
