Pain relief study for breast cancer surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether adding tramadol to a standard numbing medicine (ropivacaine) makes pain control better after breast cancer surgery. If you're having a mastectomy, this could help reduce pain and improve recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial compares two types of numbing nerve blocks to help manage pain after breast cancer surgery with lymph node removal. The goal is to find which method works better and causes fewer side effects.
This trial tests whether giving a nerve block (a numbing injection near the chest muscles) before or after mastectomy surgery affects pain and recovery. It may help you have less pain and a smoother recovery after your mastectomy.
This trial tests a nerve block to reduce pain after breast removal surgery with immediate reconstruction. It may help you recover with less discomfort.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks given before a mastectomy (breast removal surgery) to see which one provides better pain relief. If you are having a mastectomy on one side with lymph node removal, you may be able to join.
This study tests two different nerve blocks to see which one provides better pain relief after a mastectomy. If you are having a modified radical mastectomy, you may qualify to help researchers find the most effective way to manage pain after surgery.
This study tests two different nerve-block methods (PECS-II and ESP) to see which better reduces painkiller use during breast surgery. A special monitor guides how much pain medicine you need. The goal is to help you recover with less opioid side effects.
