Pain relief options after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks to manage pain after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. The goal is to find which method provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.

This study tests a nerve block called the external oblique intercostal block to reduce pain after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. If you are having this surgery, the block may help you need less pain medication and feel more comfortable after the procedure.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks for pain relief after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. If you take part, you will receive either an ultrasound-guided M-TAPA block or a quadratus lumborum block, and the researchers will measure how well each controls your pain.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (intertransverse process block and erector spinae plane block) to see which provides better pain relief after gallbladder removal surgery using small incisions (laparoscopic cholecystectomy).
This study compares two ways to numb the belly area after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. It aims to find which method gives better pain relief after the operation.
This trial tests a numbing injection called a rectointercostal plane block to reduce pain after gallbladder removal surgery. If it works, you may have less pain and need fewer painkillers after the operation.
