Nerve Blocks to Help Recovery After Stoma Reversal Surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests whether special numbing injections near the spine (nerve blocks) can reduce pain and help patients recover faster after surgery to close or reverse an ileostomy, colostomy, or ileocolostomy. The goal is to see if this approach lets people leave the hospital sooner and feel better with less pain medicine.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are scheduled for elective (planned, non-emergency) surgery to reverse or close an ileostomy, colostomy, or ileocolostomy

- You are not taking opioid pain medications regularly (chronic use)

This trial tests a type of pain-blocking injection (called a paravertebral nerve block) given during laparoscopic gallbladder removal surgery. The goal is to reduce pain and help you recover faster after the procedure.
This study tests whether special numbing injections around the spine (paravertebral nerve blocks) help patients recover faster and have less pain after video-assisted lung removal surgery. The goal is to reduce pain, reduce need for strong painkillers, and help you go home sooner.
This trial looks at two different pain-blocking injections (nerve blocks) to see which one works better for pain after keyhole stomach cancer surgery. If you are having this type of surgery, joining could help us learn which block gives you better pain relief.
This study tests whether special numbing injections placed near specific nerves can reduce pain and improve recovery after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, which is a procedure to improve blood flow to the heart. The injections are given during surgery to help manage pain afterward without needing as many strong opioid medications.
This trial tests a new pain-management technique using nerve blocks (numbing medicine injected near nerves) to help reduce pain and opioid use after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), a common heart surgery. The goal is to help you recover more comfortably with fewer strong pain medications.
This trial tests a nerve block given near the ribs to see if it reduces pain after surgeries like gastric, liver, gallbladder, or pancreatic surgery. It may help you need less pain medicine after the operation.
