Comparing two nerve blocks for pain after planned cesarean
Part of Pain, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares two types of pain-relieving nerve blocks (TAP block and ESP block) given during a planned cesarean section. It aims to find which one works better for controlling pain after surgery.

This trial compares two different numbing blocks (TAP block vs. M-TAPA block) to see which one gives better pain relief after laparoscopic gynecologic surgery. If you are having this type of surgery, you may be able to join.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after a planned cesarean section: a shot of morphine given into the spinal fluid versus a local anesthetic injected into the belly wall (TAP block). The goal is to see which provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after a planned cesarean section: a nerve block near the spine (ESPB) versus morphine injected into the spinal fluid. The goal is to find which method helps mothers recover more comfortably.
This trial compares two ways to manage pain after a planned cesarean section: one combines a spinal and epidural injection, the other is a newer type of nerve block. The goal is to see which provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This study compares different nerve blocks for pain control after a planned cesarean delivery. The goal is to find which block provides the best pain relief with fewer side effects.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (erector spinae and retrolaminar) for pain relief after cesarean delivery. Researchers want to see which one helps women recover better using a special questionnaire about how they feel after surgery.
