This study compares two types of nerve blocks to see which one provides better pain relief after outpatient shoulder surgery. Participants will receive one of the two blocks, and the study will track their pain and recovery.
Varese, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT07368920Recruiting
TENS for low back pain in adults
This study tests if a non-invasive device called TENS (which uses gentle electrical pulses) can help relieve low back pain that comes from muscle knots or tight bands. The device is applied to the skin over the painful area.

Two types of nerve treatment for chronic shoulder pain
This study compares two methods of treating chronic shoulder pain by using a needle to deliver a special type of electrical pulse to a nerve in the shoulder. The goal is to find which method provides better pain relief for people with shoulder pain from a rotator cuff problem.
AnkaraAges 40–80 - NCT07529392Recruiting
Ear nerve stimulation plus rehabilitation for chronic back pain
This trial tests a non-surgical treatment that stimulates a nerve in your ear while you do rehabilitation exercises to reduce chronic back pain. It may help if you've had pain for more than 6 months and pain medications aren't working well enough.
Baden, Lower AustriaAges 30–65 - NCT03862365Recruiting
Study genetics in people with nerve pain
This study looks at genetic differences in people being checked for a common type of nerve problem called distal symmetric polyneuropathy (nerve damage that usually affects the hands and feet). By understanding genetics, researchers hope to learn more about why neuropathic (nerve) pain happens and how it may differ between people.
BergenAges 18–70 - NCT07527039RecruitingPhase 4
Nerve Block for Pain Relief During Breast Reduction Surgery
This study tests a special numbing technique (pectoral block) to help control pain after breast reduction surgery in women with very large breasts causing symptoms like neck, shoulder, or back pain. The goal is to see if this nerve block reduces pain better than standard pain control methods.
Roanoke, VirginiaAges 18–75 - NCT07008703RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of sss40 for cancer bone pain
This trial tests a new injection called sss40 to treat moderate-to-severe pain caused by cancer that has spread to the bones. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective for people whose pain is not being controlled by current treatments.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT06959056Recruiting
Cooling therapy for pain after double lung transplant
This test uses a special cooling treatment called cryo-analgesia to see if it helps reduce pain and speed up recovery after a double lung transplant. It is only for people with end-stage COPD getting a transplant at UZ Leuven.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 18 years+ - NCT07704970Recruiting
Nerve block for pain relief in robotic kidney surgery
This trial tests a special nerve block called QLESP to control pain after robotic partial kidney removal. It may reduce the need for strong pain medicines and improve recovery.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–80 - NCT06964282Recruiting
Comparing Two Nerve Blocks for Hip Replacement Pain Relief
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (iliopsoas block and PENG block) to see which one provides better pain relief and recovery after hip replacement surgery. If you are having a hip replacement with spinal anesthesia, you may be a good candidate.
LiègeAges 18 years+ - NCT07712406Recruiting
Nerve block for lower back pain from nerve entrapment
This trial tests whether a nerve block can help people with chronic lower back or buttock pain caused by a trapped nerve near the hip bone. You may be eligible if you have had this pain for at least 3 months and it did not get better with other treatments.
Gaziosmanpaşa, IstanbulAges 18–75 - NCT07510269Recruiting
Nerve blocks for pain control during mastectomy
This study tests two different numbing shots for the chest wall to see which one provides better pain relief during and after mastectomy surgery.
Bursa, NilüferAges 18–75 - NCT06702904Recruiting
Neuroprosthesis for phantom limb pain relief
This study tests a new type of artificial limb (neuroprosthesis) that sends signals back to your brain to help reduce phantom limb pain and improve your daily life. You may be able to join if you have had an arm or leg amputation at least 6 months ago and have persistent pain.
MoscowAges 18–65 - NCT06265636Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for jaw pain and function in TMD
This trial tests whether gentle electrical stimulation of a nerve in your jaw can reduce pain and improve chewing, talking, and mouth opening for people with temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD).
Alcorcón, MadridAges 18–65 - NCT07847502Recruiting
Pain relief after cesarean section
This study tests two pain-relieving methods (interferential current and TENS) for women after a cesarean section. These treatments use mild electrical pulses to help reduce pain without medication.
MuğlaAges 18–40 - NCT06838572Recruiting
Cooling the wrist to reduce pain from arterial line placement
This study tests whether cooling the skin on your wrist before a routine arterial line placement (a small tube in your wrist artery) can reduce the pain of the procedure. If you are having surgery and need an arterial line, this might help make the experience more comfortable.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT05818774Recruiting
Different types of neck nerve ablation for chronic pain relief
This trial compares two ways of using radiofrequency heat to treat a specific set of neck pain nerves (the “cervical medial branch nerves”). It may help people with long-lasting neck pain who did not improve with standard treatments and who respond to diagnostic nerve blocks.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–85 - NCT07633444Recruiting
Ear Stimulation to Reduce Pain After Abdominal Surgery
This study tests whether mild electrical stimulation applied to your ear can reduce pain and the need for pain medication after abdominal or urologic surgery. Researchers will try different stimulation frequencies to find what works best.
Salvador, Estado de BahiaAges 18–59 - NCT05605639RecruitingPhase 4
Study tests a targeted injection for neck pain
