NCT ID NCT07019818

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 24 times

Summary

This study compares two drugs used during gallbladder surgery to see which one helps patients recover better with fewer side effects. One drug, sufentanil, is a common morphine-like painkiller that can cause nausea, confusion, and itching. The other, esmolol, is a heart medication that leaves the body quickly. About 120 adults having outpatient gallbladder surgery will take part. The goal is to find a safer alternative to morphine-based drugs for surgery.
