POSTOPERATIVE ANALGESIA

This study tested two different ultrasound-guided pain blocks in 70 adults having open kidney surgery. The goal was to see which block better controls pain after surgery and reduces the need for morphine. Results will help doctors choose the best method for patient comfort.

This study looked at 60 women having planned C-sections to compare two pain relief methods: a small dose of morphine given with the spinal anesthetic, and an ultrasound-guided numbing injection into the belly wall. The goal was to see which approach better reduces the need for ex…

This study tested two ways to manage pain in children after hernia surgery: an ultrasound-guided block near the belly muscle and a standard caudal block. Fifty children aged 1 to 7 took part. The goal was to see which method delays the need for extra pain medicine and reduces ove…

This study tested two different nerve block techniques to reduce pain after gallbladder removal surgery. Sixty adults took part, and researchers measured their pain levels and need for extra pain medicine. The goal was to find which method works better in hospitals with limited r…

This study tested two different ultrasound-guided pain blocks—TAP block and EOIP block—in 40 children undergoing open kidney surgery. The goal was to see which method delays the need for extra morphine and reduces overall pain medicine use. Results help doctors choose the best ap…

This study tested two different nerve blocks to see which one works better for pain after nose surgery (septorhinoplasty). 93 adults were randomly assigned to receive one of the blocks during surgery. Researchers measured pain scores, agitation, and side effects to find the best …

This study tested whether giving dexamethasone or ibuprofen before surgery could improve pain relief after hand or forearm surgery. 79 adults received one of the two drugs along with a nerve block. Researchers measured how long pain relief lasted and checked for nausea. The goal …

This study looked at 117 women having a planned C-section to compare two pain relief methods: morphine given during spinal anesthesia and a nerve block (transversalis fascia plane block). The goal was to see which approach better reduces pain and improves satisfaction after surge…

This study looked at whether giving ibuprofen and paracetamol before laparoscopic hysterectomy surgery helps control pain in the first 24 hours after the procedure. Researchers measured pain scores and how much extra opioid pain medicine patients needed. The study included 70 adu…

This study tested adding dexmedetomidine to a standard numbing medicine for a nerve block after C-section. 80 women received the block after spinal anesthesia. The goal was to see if the combination provides longer pain relief, reduces recovery time, and lowers the need for extra…

This study tested two methods to control pain after a total abdominal hysterectomy (removal of the uterus through a belly incision). Sixty women received either an ultrasound-guided nerve block (TFP block) or a spinal injection of morphine. The goal was to see which approach prov…

This study tested whether a specific nerve block (EXORA) can reduce pain and the need for morphine after umbilical hernia repair. Fifty adults having hernia surgery were randomly assigned to receive either the block or standard care. The main goal was to see how much morphine the…

This study looked at 30 boys aged 1-8 years having hypospadias repair surgery. They received either a caudal block (near the tailbone) or a dorsal penile nerve block (near the penis) for pain relief. The caudal block worked better in the first few hours after surgery and reduced …

This study looked at 60 adults having heart bypass surgery to compare two different nerve block techniques for pain control. One group received a deep and superficial chest wall block, while the other got a combination of two deeper blocks. Researchers measured pain scores, paink…

This study looked at 40 adults who had open kidney surgery to see which pain-blocking injection works better. One group got an external oblique intercostal plane (EOIP) block, and the other got a transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block. Researchers measured how much extra pain me…

This study tested two ultrasound-guided nerve blocks—edge of laminar block (ELB) and erector spinae plane block (ESPB)—for pain after video-assisted chest surgery. 70 adults were randomly assigned to one block. The goal was to see which block reduces the need for morphine and del…
