Pain control and gut recovery after abdominal surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a combination of two pain-management approaches—a long-acting numbing medicine injected near nerves and a self-administered opioid—to see if they help your gut function better and control pain after bowel or colon surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two pain-relief medications—tegileridine and sufentanil—given after major abdominal surgery to see which works better for pain control and helps your stomach and bowels recover faster. You'll be randomly assigned to receive one of these medications.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after lung cancer surgery: one uses only non-opioid medicines, the other uses traditional opioids. The goal is to see if avoiding opioids can provide better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This trial tests a painkiller called Tegileridine to see if it helps your bowels work normally again after abdominal surgery.
This study tests whether injecting a numbing medicine at the surgery site reduces pain after laparoscopic abdominal surgery. It may help patients have less pain and recover more comfortably.
This trial tests a long-acting painkiller injected during surgery to see if it reduces pain after keyhole (laparoscopic) procedures like gallbladder removal, hernia repair, or appendix removal. It may help you need fewer opioids and recover more comfortably.
This trial is testing if a special numbing medicine called liposomal bupivacaine, given as a nerve block during surgery, can help reduce pain after laparoscopic procedures like gallbladder removal or hernia repair. It might help you feel better with less need for strong painkillers.
