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 tests whether a nerve block (injecting numbing medicine near the belly muscles) can improve pain control for older adults having minimally invasive surgery for gastrointestinal tumors. The goal is to reduce pain and the need for strong painkillers after surgery.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (M-TAPA and TAP) to see which provides better pain relief after laparoscopic appendix removal. If you are having this surgery, you may experience less pain and need fewer painkillers.
This trial compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) given during surgery to help reduce pain afterward in children having upper abdominal surgery. The goal is to find which method works better to keep kids more comfortable after their operation.
This study compares two different ways to give a numbing medicine (TAP block) before abdominal surgery to see which one works better for pain control. If you are scheduled for elective abdominal surgery, joining may help doctors find the best way to manage your pain.
This study tests adding a special nerve block (peripheral autonomic block) to a standard abdominal wall block to see if it provides better pain relief after minimally invasive left-sided colon surgery. It may help patients experience less pain and use fewer pain medications.
