Long-acting pain relief after hysterectomy
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether a long-acting numbing medicine placed around the vaginal cuff (the top of the vagina) during robotic hysterectomy can reduce pain after surgery. It may help you go home with better pain control and fewer pain pills.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You weigh at least 147 pounds (about 66.5 kg).
- You are having a robotic-assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy (surgery to remove the uterus using small cuts and a robot).
- Your surgery is done for a non-cancerous (benign) reason, like fibroids or heavy bleeding.
- You are having your surgery at one of three Memorial Hermann hospitals in the Houston area.
- You are not having any other surgery at the same time, and you are not staying overnight in the hospital.

This study tests whether placing a pain medicine inside the abdomen during hysterectomy can reduce postoperative pain. It targets people having specific types of minimally invasive hysterectomy for non-cancer reasons.
This trial tests whether a long-lasting numbing shot (liposomal bupivacaine) works better than a regular numbing shot (plain bupivacaine) for pain after minimally invasive chest surgery. It may help you have less post-surgery pain and potentially use less pain medication.
This study tests if numbing the top of the vagina (vaginal cuff) with a local anesthetic can reduce the need for pain medicine after a hysterectomy done by laparoscopy (small cuts in the belly). If you are having this surgery for a non-cancerous condition or cancer, you may be able to join.
This trial tests if injecting a numbing medicine called bupivacaine into the abdomen during surgery can reduce pain after a laparoscopic hysterectomy (uterus removal through small cuts). It may help you recover with less discomfort.
This Phase 3 study tests whether a preventive numbing medicine injection before a vaginal hysterectomy (using the vNOTES approach) can reduce pain afterward. It may help with comfort and recovery after surgery for non-cancer reasons.
This study tests whether injecting a numbing medicine (local anesthetic) at the surgery site helps reduce pain after laparoscopic abdominal surgery. If effective, it could offer a simple way to improve comfort after your operation.
