Nerve block injection for pain and nausea after sleeve gastrectomy
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a special numbing injection (called a paragastric block) to see if it reduces pain and nausea after sleeve gastrectomy surgery. If you are having this weight-loss surgery, the injection might help you feel better and recover more comfortably.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a nerve block (an injection near the nerves) to see if it helps reduce pain after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. The block is called a modified thoracoabdominal nerve plane block, and it may lead to better pain control and recovery.
This trial compares two ultrasound-guided nerve blocks to manage pain after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. If you are having this weight-loss surgery, these blocks might help reduce your need for pain medicine and improve your recovery.
This study tests two different numbing injections (nerve blocks) for pain control after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (weight loss surgery). Researchers want to see which method is easier and works better for reducing pain.
