Pain relief injections for gallbladder surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) around the ribs and abdomen to see if they reduce pain after laparoscopic gallbladder removal surgery. It may help you have better pain control and a smoother recovery.

This trial tests a numbing injection called a rectointercostal plane block to reduce pain after gallbladder removal surgery. If it works, you may have less pain and need fewer painkillers after the operation.
This study tests a nerve block called the external oblique intercostal block to reduce pain after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. If you are having this surgery, the block may help you need less pain medication and feel more comfortable after the procedure.
This study compares two ways of giving pain relief after gallbladder removal surgery: an injection of numbing medicine around the belly muscles (guided by ultrasound) versus a simple injection into the skin near the surgery cuts. The goal is to see which method provides better pain control and comfort after surgery.
