Nerve Blocks to Reduce Pain After Robotic Colon Surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether special numbing injections around your abdominal muscles can help reduce pain and pain medication needs after robotic colorectal cancer surgery. The goal is to find the best way to keep you comfortable during recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- This is your first time having this type of colorectal surgery
- You are between 18 and 80 years old
- You do not have a history of chronic pain conditions
- You are not pregnant

This study tests adding a special nerve block (peripheral autonomic block) to a standard abdominal wall block to see if it provides better pain relief after minimally invasive left-sided colon surgery. It may help patients experience less pain and use fewer pain medications.
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.
This study compares two different numbing techniques (nerve blocks) to help manage pain after open colorectal surgery. Both methods are injected near muscles in your abdomen to reduce the need for strong painkillers after surgery.
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.
This trial tests a pain-relief technique called a nerve block during minimally invasive surgery to remove colorectal cancer. The block numbs nerves in the lower abdomen to potentially reduce pain and improve recovery after surgery.
This study tests a new combination of pain blocks for people having laparoscopic (keyhole) colon or rectal surgery. The goal is to see if adding a back muscle block to the standard abdominal wall block provides better pain relief.
