Pain relief methods for robotic colorectal surgery recovery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial compares two ways of injecting numbing medication around the spine to reduce pain after robotic colorectal surgery. The goal is to find which method works better and helps patients need fewer opioid painkillers during recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial compares two different numbing techniques (nerve blocks) to help manage pain after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, a weight loss surgery. The goal is to find which method works better for pain control after the procedure.
This study compares two different numbing techniques (nerve blocks) to help manage pain after minimally invasive rib fracture surgery. Both methods use local anesthetic near nerves to reduce pain and may help you recover more comfortably.
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 trial compares two different numbing injection techniques to help control pain after laparoscopic weight-loss surgery. The goal is to find which method works better and causes fewer side effects.
This study compares two ways to block pain after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (a weight-loss surgery). Researchers test different nerve-blocking injections to see which one works better for pain control after the procedure.
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.
