All recruiting trials (15)
-
Pre-incisional ropivacaine plus Diprospan for pain after laparoscopic surgery
This study tests whether injecting ropivacaine with Diprospan before surgery reduces pain after laparoscopic gallbladder, appendix, or hernia operations compared with ropivacaine alone.
-
Remimazolam and Sevoflurane: How they work together during anesthesia
This study tests how remimazolam and sevoflurane interact during general anesthesia in adults undergoing laparoscopic surgery to see if their combined effect is stronger, the same, or weaker than expected.
-
Pre-incisional ropivacaine plus triamcinolone for pain after laparoscopic surgery
This trial tests whether injecting ropivacaine with or without triamcinolone before incision can reduce postoperative pain in adults undergoing common laparoscopic procedures like gallbladder removal, appendix removal, or hernia repair.
-
Superior hypogastric plexus block to improve recovery after laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery
This will test whether adding a superior hypogastric plexus block helps adults having laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery recover faster and have less pain.
-
Patient-controlled IV anrikefon for pain after laparoscopic colorectal surgery
This trial tests whether patient-controlled intravenous anrikefon, given in different doses alongside standard nerve blocks, can better relieve visceral postoperative pain in adults having elective laparoscopic colorectal surgery.
-
Pelvic floor mesh used in laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy to repair pelvic organ prolapse
This study tests the ProGYNious mesh to see if it safely and effectively repairs pelvic organ prolapse in adults undergoing laparoscopic surgery.
-
Liposomal bupivacaine TAP block to reduce pain after laparoscopic gynecologic cancer surgery
This trial will test whether a long‑acting liposomal form of bupivacaine given as a transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block reduces postoperative pain for adults having laparoscopic gynecologic oncology surgery.
-
Liposomal bupivacaine via transversus abdominis plane block to reduce pain after laparoscopic surgery
This trial will test whether adding liposomal bupivacaine to an ultrasound-guided TAP block reduces postoperative pain and opioid use in adults having elective laparoscopic abdominal surgery.
-
Liposomal bupivacaine for pain after laparoscopic surgery
This trial will test whether a long-acting, liposomal form of bupivacaine given at the incision reduces postoperative pain and the need for oral pain medicines in adults having elective laparoscopic procedures.
-
Intravenous lidocaine with ropivacaine at the port sites for recovery after laparoscopic colorectal surgery
This trial tests whether giving an IV lidocaine during surgery plus ropivacaine at the port sites improves recovery after laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery compared with ropivacaine at the port sites alone.
-
LatGYNious pelvic mesh for treating pelvic organ prolapse
This study will try the LatGYNious preformed mesh during laparoscopic lateral suspension surgery to see if it improves prolapse symptoms in women who need surgical repair.
-
Comparing ligament preservation and removal in hernia surgery for women
This study is trying to see if keeping or removing a specific ligament during hernia surgery helps women recover faster and have fewer problems afterward.
-
Using Electrical Impedance Tomography to Improve Breathing During Abdominal Laparoscopic Surgery
This study tests if using a special breathing technique with electrical sensors can help patients breathe better during abdominal surgery compared to standard methods.
-
Assessing lymph node removal quality during minimally invasive gastric cancer surgery
This study is testing a new scoring system to see if it can help doctors better assess lymph node removal during minimally invasive surgery for stomach cancer and improve patient outcomes.
-
Comparing standard and lower pressure in laparoscopic surgery
This study is testing if using lower pressure during laparoscopic gynecologic surgery can help reduce post-operative pain while still allowing doctors to see clearly during the procedure.
NIH-funded research (5)
Early-stage science funded by the US National Institutes of Health. Most of these projects don't enroll patients, but they show what is being worked on.
-
Multimodal KeyScope Laparoscope to broaden access to keyhole surgery
A new laparoscope-based system is being developed to help more patients get minimally invasive surgery, including in rural and combat-zone settings.
-
Small PET-guided probe for laparoscopic prostate cancer surgery
Trying a tiny PET-guided probe to help surgeons find and remove prostate cancer during laparoscopic operations.
-
Improving cancer surgery with advanced imaging probes
This study is testing a new, smaller surgical tool that helps doctors find cancerous areas more easily during prostate surgery, which could lead to better results for patients like you.
-
Improving pain management after laparoscopic surgery to reduce opioid use
This study is working on new guidelines to help doctors manage pain after laparoscopic surgeries, so patients can feel better with less need for strong painkillers like opioids.
-
Making laparoscopic surgery affordable and accessible in low- and middle-income countries
This study is working on a new, affordable surgery tool that can help hospitals in low-income areas perform less painful and quicker surgeries, making it easier for patients to recover and go home sooner.
