Nerve blocks for easier positioning before hip surgery
This study compares two different numbing injections (nerve blocks) to see which one helps you get into position more easily for spinal anesthesia before hip surgery. The goal is to make the procedure less painful and more comfortable.
Banhā, ElqalyoubeaAges 18 years+ - NCT05247255Enrolling by invitationEarly Phase 1
Nerve block during hip replacement surgery
This early-stage study tests whether a specific nerve block to numb the lower back area can make total hip replacement surgery more comfortable. It looks at patients who are having planned (elective) hip replacement and whether the nerve block is safe and works well.

Tramadol and oxycodone vs oxycodone alone for joint pain
This trial tests if taking two pain relievers (tramadol and oxycodone) together works better than oxycodone alone to control pain after knee or hip replacement surgery. It aims to find a more effective way to manage pain with fewer side effects.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06982625Recruiting
Numbing injection after hip replacement for pain relief
This trial tests whether an injection of numbing medicine near the hip can help control pain after a hip replacement surgery. It may be an option for people who have significant pain after their operation.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05023369RecruitingPhase 4
Hip replacement patients may get an added steroid injection

Pain relief after hip replacement surgery
This study compares two types of nerve blocks for pain relief after hip replacement surgery. It aims to find which method reduces pain and improves recovery.
Istanbul, BagcilarAges 18–80 - NCT07716540Recruiting
Pain relief injection for hip fracture surgery
This study tests whether a special numbing injection (deep iliacus plane block) can better control pain after hip fracture surgery. If you're having hip surgery under spinal anesthesia, researchers want to see if this extra block helps you recover with less pain.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT06863636RecruitingPhase 3
Combination painkiller vs celecoxib for osteoarthritis flare-ups
This study tests whether a combination of two pain relievers (celecoxib and acetaminophen) works better than celecoxib alone for sudden, severe osteoarthritis pain in the knee or hip.
