Nerve blocks for pain after sleeve gastrectomy surgery
Part of Digestive system, Pain clinical trials.
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 compares two ways to manage pain after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy: one uses a medication called dexmedetomidine given through an IV, and the other uses a combination of nerve blocks (TAP block and paragastric block) to see which leads to a better recovery.
This study compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) used with ultrasound to manage pain after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (a weight-loss surgery). The goal is to see which injection provides better pain relief after surgery.
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 study compares two types of pain blocks (numbing injections) after weight-loss surgery. The goal is to find which method provides better pain relief after your operation.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (weight-loss surgery): an ultrasound-guided injection near the ribs versus a local numbing medication at the incision sites. The goal is to see which method provides better pain relief and helps you breathe more comfortably after surgery.
This study compares three types of nerve blocks to see which works best for reducing pain after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. The blocks are injected near the belly to numb the area, and the study aims to find the most effective one for better recovery.
