Pain Relief Blocks for Cesarean Section Recovery
Part of Pain, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares two types of numbing injections given during cesarean delivery to help manage pain after surgery. The goal is to determine which injection works better for pain relief without needing as much opioid medication afterward.

This study compares different nerve blocks for pain control after a planned cesarean delivery. The goal is to find which block provides the best pain relief with fewer side effects.
This trial compares two different numbing injection techniques to help control pain after surgery above the belly button. It may help people who qualify have better or longer-lasting pain relief with fewer side effects.
This trial compares two ways to manage pain after a planned cesarean section: one combines a spinal and epidural injection, the other is a newer type of nerve block. The goal is to see which provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This study tests whether a nerve-numbing injection in the abdomen helps reduce pain after a cesarean (C-section) delivery. The injection uses a local anesthetic to numb the area around your surgical wound, potentially reducing pain and the need for stronger pain medicines after surgery.
This trial tests different amounts of numbing medication injected near the surgical area after cesarean delivery to see which works best for pain relief. You would receive this injection after your surgery, and researchers would track how well it controls your pain.
This study tests whether a nerve block in the lower belly wall (transversalis fascia plane block) or a medication injected into the spinal fluid (intrathecal dexmedetomidine) provides better pain relief for mothers having a planned cesarean section under spinal anesthesia.
