Nerve block comparison for lung function after gallbladder surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Lungs & breathing, Pain clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks to see which one better preserves lung function after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. It may help patients recover breathing ability more quickly after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 70 years old.
- You are scheduled for gallbladder removal surgery using a laparoscope.
- You can cooperate with breathing tests before and after surgery.
- You do not have bleeding problems or take blood thinners.
- You are not a current smoker and do not use strong pain medicines regularly.
- Your body mass index (BMI) is 35 or lower.

This study tests whether two different numbing injections (M-TAPA and TAPB) placed before surgery can reduce pain after keyhole gallbladder removal, compared to standard care. If you qualify, the injections may help you feel less discomfort after the operation.
This study tests two different numbing techniques (nerve blocks) to see which one works better for pain relief after minimally invasive chest surgery. Both methods inject medicine near nerves to reduce post-surgery pain.
This trial compares two different nerve-block techniques (numbing injections near the spine) to see which one better reduces pain after minimally invasive gallbladder removal surgery. You would receive one of these pain-relief methods during surgery to help you feel more comfortable afterward.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (intertransverse process block and erector spinae plane block) to see which provides better pain relief after gallbladder removal surgery using small incisions (laparoscopic cholecystectomy).
This study tests a special nerve block called M-TAPA to see if it helps control pain during and after gallbladder removal surgery. It might offer better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks to manage pain during and after a type of lung surgery that removes only part of the lung. It aims to find which block provides better pain relief and recovery.
