Which nerve block helps gallbladder surgery patients recover faster?
NCT ID NCT07264608
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two common ultrasound-guided nerve block techniques used to reduce pain and improve recovery after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. 76 adults will receive one of two blocks while under anesthesia. The main goal is to see which method leads to a better recovery on the first day after surgery, measured by a quality-of-recovery questionnaire.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
bupivacaine
What this could lead to
If one block proves better, it could become the preferred method for managing pain and speeding recovery after gallbladder surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 76 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Both techniques are already in use, so no major breakthrough is expected.
