Pain relief options for robotic prostate surgery
Part of Kidney & urinary, Pain clinical trials.
This study compares different ways to manage pain during and after robot-assisted prostate surgery. It aims to find the most effective and safest pain control method to help you recover more comfortably.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for robot-assisted prostate surgery (to remove the prostate or part of it).
- Your surgery is planned in advance, not an emergency.
- You are generally healthy enough for surgery (classified as ASA II or higher).
- You can understand the study and give written permission to take part.
- You do not have conditions that make spinal or regional anesthesia unsafe, such as bleeding problems, allergies to the drugs used, severe spine or heart valve problems, or an active infection at the needle site.

This study tests a nerve block (erector spinae plane block) to see if it helps reduce pain after laparoscopic abdominal surgery. If you're having keyhole surgery, you may receive the block along with standard anesthesia.
This study tests whether combining a specific type of chest surgery (using small cameras) with numbing injections around nerves reduces pain and the need for strong pain medications after surgery. Researchers want to see if this approach helps patients recover better with less opioid use.
This study compares two types of pain blocks to see which provides better pain relief after robotic prostate removal. It may help reduce pain and improve recovery after surgery.
This trial tests if adding tramadol and magnesium to a local anesthetic (ropivacaine) improves pain control after robotic prostate removal. It may help reduce the need for strong painkillers after surgery.
This study compares two different nerve blocks used to reduce pain after robotic colorectal surgery. The goal is to see which block provides better pain relief and helps you recover more comfortably.
This trial tests a nerve block to reduce pain after robotic thymus surgery. It may help patients with thymus growths or cysts have less pain and use fewer painkillers after their operation.
