Pain Relief Methods for Gallbladder Surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two types of numbing injections given during laparoscopic gallbladder removal surgery to see which one reduces the need for strong pain medications during the procedure. You would receive one of these two injection methods as part of your anesthesia care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old
- You are scheduled for elective (planned) laparoscopic gallbladder removal surgery under general anesthesia
- You are in overall good to moderate health (ASA status I–III, meaning you don't have severe medical conditions)
- You do not have a known allergy to local anesthetic medications (numbing drugs)
- You are not pregnant and do not regularly use opioid pain medications
- You do not have a bleeding disorder or take blood thinners, and you have no active infection where the injection would be placed

This trial compares two methods of giving local anesthetic during laparoscopic gallbladder removal to see which provides better pain relief. It may help patients recover with less pain after surgery.
This trial compares two anesthetic nerve blocks to see which one reduces the need for opioid pain medicine after gallbladder removal. If you are having laparoscopic gallbladder surgery, this study may help you recover with less pain and fewer opioid side effects.
This study compares two different nerve-blocking techniques to help manage pain after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. Both methods use ultrasound guidance to deliver numbing medication near nerves, and the trial tests which approach works better for pain relief and overall recovery.
This study compares two ways to numb the surgical area during laparoscopic gallbladder removal: an ultrasound-guided injection into the abdominal muscle sheath versus direct numbing medicine applied to the incision. The goal is to see which method reduces pain and painkiller use after surgery.
This study tests three different ways to control pain during gallbladder removal surgery: numbing the skin with bupivacaine, a nerve block in the back, or a small dose of morphine into the spinal fluid. The goal is to see which provides the best pain relief after surgery.
This study compares two different pain-relief techniques (nerve blocks) given during gallbladder removal surgery to see which one works better after the operation. Both methods numb specific nerves to reduce post-surgery pain.
