Low-flow anesthesia for gallbladder removal
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a gentler anesthesia technique (low-flow anesthesia) is as safe and effective as standard anesthesia for patients having their gallbladder removed by laparoscopy. It aims to confirm the technique's benefits, such as less medication use and steadier recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older
- You are scheduled for a non-emergency laparoscopic gallbladder removal
- You are willing to provide written consent to participate
- You must not have heart failure, heart valve problems, or unstable blood pressure
- You must not have a history of irregular heart rhythm or an abnormal heart tracing (prolonged QT interval)
- You must not be on certain medications that affect heart rhythm (like ketamine or some anti-nausea drugs)

This trial tests two medicines, labetalol and lignocaine, given through a vein to see which better controls blood pressure and heart rate during the tube placed in your windpipe for a routine gallbladder removal surgery.
This study tests two different levels of anaesthesia gas flow during laparoscopic gallbladder surgery to see how they affect your blood pressure and heart rate. If you are having this surgery, participating might help improve how anaesthesia is given during similar procedures.
This trial tests whether giving the medicine lidocaine through an IV during gallbladder removal surgery can help reduce pain and improve recovery. It is for people having planned (non-emergency) gallbladder surgery.
This study compares two types of anesthesia during laparoscopic gallbladder removal: one that avoids opioids (with other pain medicines) and one that uses opioids. The goal is to see if opioid-free anesthesia reduces pain and nausea/vomiting after surgery.
This study tests a new way of guiding anesthesia during gallbladder removal surgery, with the goal of using less opioid pain medicine. It may help you have a smoother recovery with fewer side effects.
This study tests whether giving a low dose of a calming medicine (called dexmedetomidine) before gallbladder removal surgery reduces pain and helps you recover more smoothly. The medicine is given through an IV before general anesthesia, and the goal is to make your surgery and recovery more comfortable.
