Pain relief and oxygen levels after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how different pain relief methods during laparoscopic gallbladder surgery affect your oxygen levels after the operation. It aims to find which pain management approach helps you breathe better and recover more comfortably.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years of age or older
- You are scheduled for a planned (not emergency) laparoscopic gallbladder removal
- Your surgery is expected to last less than 3 hours
- You do not have a chronic lung disease such as asthma or COPD
- You do not have severe heart failure or advanced heart disease
- Your blood oxygen level is at least 90% without needing extra oxygen before surgery

This study tests whether lying on your side versus on your back helps maintain better oxygen levels during and after a stomach/intestine viewing procedure. The trial includes patients with lung conditions to see what works best for different people.
This study tests whether your body position during recovery from sedated endoscopy (a camera procedure to examine your stomach and colon) affects your oxygen levels. The researchers want to find the best recovery position to keep your oxygen levels stable and safe.
This study checks how well oxygen levels hold up after gallbladder surgery in people with different body sizes. It looks at whether a simple sleep-apnea risk score (called STOP-BANG) helps predict who might need extra oxygen after the operation.
This study checks how your diaphragm (the muscle that helps you breathe) moves after gallbladder surgery and whether it affects your oxygen levels. It may help improve recovery after surgery.
This study looks at whether a simple breathing measurement taken before weight-loss surgery can help predict if you might have low oxygen levels after surgery. If you are already scheduled for this type of surgery, participating may help doctors improve care for future patients.
This trial compares two different breathing machine settings during laparoscopic hernia surgery to see which one helps maintain better oxygen levels. It may help reduce lung complications and improve recovery after surgery.
