Comparing low vs standard dose block for gallbladder surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests two different amounts of a numbing medicine (local anesthetic) given during gallbladder removal surgery. The goal is to see if a lower dose works just as well for pain control.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for gallbladder removal surgery (laparoscopic cholecystectomy) under general anesthesia.

- You are not obese (BMI less than 35).
- You do not have any bleeding disorders or take blood thinners.
- You are not pregnant and do not have a history of chronic pain or long-term opioid use.

This trial compares two different nerve blocks (EXORA and ESP) to see which one works better for pain control during and after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. If you're having elective gallbladder surgery, you may be able to join.
This study tests two different numbing injections (nerve blocks) for pain relief during gallbladder removal. It aims to see which one works better.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks—one in the abdominal wall and another in the side—to see which provides better pain relief after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. It helps find a more effective way to manage pain and reduce the need for strong painkillers.
This trial compares two different nerve-block techniques (numbing injections near the spine) to see which one better reduces pain after minimally invasive gallbladder removal surgery. You would receive one of these pain-relief methods during surgery to help you feel more comfortable afterward.
This trial compares two anesthetic nerve blocks to see which one reduces the need for opioid pain medicine after gallbladder removal. If you are having laparoscopic gallbladder surgery, this study may help you recover with less pain and fewer opioid side effects.
This trial tests which pain-relief block works better for patients having gallbladder removal by laparoscopy. It may help if you are having this surgery and want better pain control.
