Pain Relief Before Gallbladder Removal Surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether a pain-relief medication called Anrikefon, given before laparoscopic gallbladder removal surgery, helps reduce pain after the procedure. Laparoscopic surgery uses small cuts and a camera, so it's less invasive than open surgery.

This study compares two different nerve-blocking techniques to help manage pain after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. Both methods use ultrasound guidance to deliver numbing medication near nerves, and the trial tests which approach works better for pain relief and overall recovery.
This study compares two ways to numb the surgical area during laparoscopic gallbladder removal: an ultrasound-guided injection into the abdominal muscle sheath versus direct numbing medicine applied to the incision. The goal is to see which method reduces pain and painkiller use after surgery.
This trial compares two ways to numb the area around your ribs and abdomen during open gallbladder surgery to help with pain relief after the operation. Researchers want to find out which method works better and causes fewer side effects.
This study looks at pain after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. It may help find better ways to manage discomfort after surgery.
This trial tests whether flushing the abdomen with a numbing medication (bupivacaine) during minimally invasive gallbladder surgery reduces pain after the procedure compared to using saline (salt water) alone.
This trial tests whether injecting a numbing medication mixed with a steroid into the surgical area before making cuts can reduce pain after common laparoscopic procedures like gallbladder removal or hernia repair. The goal is to help patients recover with less pain and fewer pain medications.
