Pain Relief Methods After Gallbladder Surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Age between 20 and 60 years old
- Scheduled for planned gallbladder removal (not emergency surgery) under general anesthesia
- Generally healthy, with no serious heart, lung, liver, or kidney disease
- No allergy or medical reason to avoid the pain-relief medications being tested
- BMI (body weight measure) of 35 or less

This study compares two types of nerve blocks—one in the abdominal wall and another in the side—to see which provides better pain relief after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. It helps find a more effective way to manage pain and reduce the need for strong painkillers.
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 trial compares two ways to numb the area around your ribs and abdomen during open gallbladder surgery to help with pain relief after the operation. Researchers want to find out which method works better and causes fewer side effects.
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 three different nerve blocks to see which provides the best pain relief after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. Your participation could help determine a more effective way to manage postoperative pain.
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.
