Comparing two pain blocks for laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests two different numbing injections (nerve blocks) for pain control after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (weight loss surgery). Researchers want to see which method is easier and works better for reducing pain.

This trial compares two types of nerve blocks to see which one reduces pain better after laparoscopic stomach cancer surgery. If you qualify, you'll help doctors find the best way to manage pain with fewer side effects.
This study compares different volumes of a nerve block (SPSIP) for pain relief after breast surgery. It aims to see if one volume provides better pain control with fewer side effects.
This study tests a special numbing injection (called a paragastric block) to see if it reduces pain and nausea after sleeve gastrectomy surgery. If you are having this weight-loss surgery, the injection might help you feel better and recover more comfortably.
