Nerve block for pain after laparoscopic abdominal surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Digestive system, 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 study tests two types of nerve blocks to see which one provides better pain relief for children after laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery. The blocks are given before surgery to help reduce pain afterward.
This study compares two different numbing techniques (nerve blocks) to help manage pain after open colorectal surgery. Both methods are injected near muscles in your abdomen to reduce the need for strong painkillers after surgery.
This trial tests whether a nerve block (erector spinae plane block) given continuously during and after surgery can reduce pain in people undergoing lung surgery. It may help you need less strong pain medicine and feel better after your operation.
This study compares two different nerve-block pain-relief techniques to help manage pain after laparoscopic abdominal surgery (minimally invasive surgery using small incisions). Researchers want to see which method works better and causes fewer side effects.
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.
