Spinal Pain Relief During Hiatal Hernia Surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Digestive system, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests whether injecting pain medication directly into the spinal fluid during a minimally invasive stomach surgery (called fundoplication) helps reduce pain after the operation. Fundoplication is used to treat severe acid reflux.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled to have laparoscopic fundoplication surgery (a minimally invasive procedure to treat acid reflux)
- You are 18 years old or older
- You are not pregnant
- You do not have chronic pain conditions or a history of substance abuse
- You are eligible for spinal anesthesia (numbing medication injected near the spine)

This trial tests a new way to monitor pain during laparoscopic surgery. It may help your doctor adjust pain medicines to keep you comfortable.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after open inguinal hernia repair: a nerve block (injection near the abdominal muscles) versus a low-dose painkiller (morphine) given through the spinal needle. The goal is to find which method provides better relief with fewer side effects.
This trial tests whether a pain-relieving medication (morphine) injected into the spinal fluid during surgery improves recovery after open abdominal surgery. The goal is to reduce pain and help patients recover faster as part of an enhanced recovery program.
This trial tests whether a single injection of morphine into the fluid around the spine can provide better pain relief after planned laparoscopic or robotic abdominal surgery. If you are having one of several types of major abdominal surgery that lasts at least 2 hours and requires a hospital stay of at least 1 day, this study may be an option.
This study compares two different numbing techniques used during laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair to see which one provides better pain relief after surgery. You'll use a patient-controlled pain pump to manage discomfort during recovery.
This study tests whether adding a small dose of morphine to a numbing injection near the spine (called erector spinae plane block) provides better pain relief after midline belly surgery. It may help reduce the need for other pain medicines and improve recovery.
