Summary

This study tests two methods of numbing the belly area after a kidney transplant to see which provides better pain relief and reduces the need for strong painkillers. About 200 adult kidney transplant patients will receive either a continuous numbing medicine drip or a single long-lasting injection. The goal is to improve comfort and recovery after surgery.
