Recruiting studies
- NCT07489001Recruiting
Comparing opioid-free to standard anesthesia for back surgery
This study compares two types of anesthesia for lower back surgery: one that uses opioids and one that does not. The goal is to see which approach controls pain better with fewer side effects.
Istanbul, MaltepeAges 18–75 - NCT07535697Recruiting
Pain relief methods after lung surgery: two approaches compared
This study compares two ways to reduce pain after minimally invasive lung surgery (VATS). Researchers test whether numbing the chest wall with ultrasound guidance works as well as numbing nerves seen during surgery to help you recover more comfortably.
Offenbach, HesseAges 18 years+ - NCT07556536Recruiting
Nerve block comparison for kidney removal surgery pain
This trial tests two different types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) to see which one works better at controlling pain after open kidney removal surgery. You would receive one of these blocks during surgery to help reduce pain and the amount of strong pain medication you need afterward.
Al FayyumAges 18–65 - NCT07560267Recruiting
Ultrasound nerve block for kidney surgery pain relief
This trial tests whether a special nerve-numbing injection in the back (guided by ultrasound imaging) can reduce pain after kidney removal surgery. If it works well, it could help patients recover more comfortably with less need for strong pain medications.
DhakaAges 18–64 - NCT07561827RecruitingPhase 3
Nerve Block for Pain After Spine Surgery in Teens
This trial tests whether a numbing injection around the spine muscles (erector spinae plane block) reduces pain and the need for strong pain medications after back surgery for scoliosis in teenagers. The goal is to help young patients recover more comfortably.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 10–18 - NCT07578545Recruiting
Pain management after minimally invasive chest surgery
This study tests whether combining a specific type of chest surgery (using small cameras) with numbing injections around nerves reduces pain and the need for strong pain medications after surgery. Researchers want to see if this approach helps patients recover better with less opioid use.
Antalya, MuratpaşaAges 18–75 - NCT07624058Recruiting
Nerve Block Comparison for Gallbladder Surgery Pain
This trial compares two different nerve-block techniques (numbing injections near the spine) to see which one better reduces pain after minimally invasive gallbladder removal surgery. You would receive one of these pain-relief methods during surgery to help you feel more comfortable afterward.
AlexandriaAges 30–65 - NCT07632820RecruitingPhase 4
Nerve Block vs. Injection for Upper Back Muscle Pain
This study compares two ways to treat chronic muscle pain in the upper back: a nerve block (numbing injection near the spine) and trigger point injections (shots directly into painful muscle knots). The goal is to see which approach works better for long-lasting relief.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18–80 - NCT07633730Recruiting
Nerve Block for Back Pain in Ankylosing Spondylitis
This study tests whether a nerve-blocking injection in the back muscles can relieve persistent back pain in people with ankylosing spondylitis (a condition causing spine inflammation and stiffness). The injection targets specific nerves to reduce pain while your current disease treatment continues.
Istanbul, PendikAges 18–65 - NCT07640282Recruiting
Nerve Blocks for Pain After Kidney Removal Surgery
This trial compares two types of nerve-blocking injections (ESP and EXORA blocks) to reduce pain after laparoscopic kidney removal surgery. The goal is to see which method works better for controlling pain after the procedure.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18–80 - NCT07642336Recruiting
Pain relief methods for open liver surgery
This study compares two ways to manage pain after open liver surgery: a nerve block in the back muscles versus a spinal catheter for pain medicine. It tests which method works better and is safer for patients undergoing this major surgery.
Hà Nội, Kim LienAges 18–80 - NCT07650305Recruiting
Pain Relief Methods After Breast Cancer Surgery
This trial compares two different nerve-blocking techniques (numbing methods) to reduce pain after breast cancer surgery. Both approaches aim to keep you comfortable during and after your operation.
CairoAges 18–65 - NCT07653490Recruiting
Two anesthesia methods for gallbladder surgery
This study tests whether a numbing injection in the back (erector spinae plane block) helps reduce anesthesia needs during gallbladder surgery. It compares two anesthesia methods to see which works better for pain control and recovery.
IstanbulAges 18–65 - NCT07655323Recruiting
RISS vs. ESP Block for Gallbladder Surgery Pain
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (RISS and ESP) to manage pain after gallbladder removal surgery. It aims to find which block provides better pain relief.
Bursa, NilüferAges 18–75 - NCT07666178RecruitingPhase 3
Continuous ESP Block for Pain After Bypass Surgery
This study tests a continuous nerve block (ESP block) placed near the spine to control pain after bypass surgery. It aims to see if this block improves recovery and reduces pain.
São Paulo, São PauloAges Any age - NCT06562634Enrolling by invitation
Ultrasound-guided nerve block for knee surgery pain relief
This study tests a nerve block (erector spinae plane block) to see if it reduces pain after open knee surgery. It aims to find a better way to manage pain with fewer side effects.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for erector spinae plane block?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 112 recruiting erector spinae plane block studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a erector spinae plane block trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a erector spinae plane block trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
