South Burlington, VermontAges 18 years+ - NCT07577908Recruiting
Pain Relief Methods for Minimally Invasive Lung Surgery
This study compares two methods of numbing nerves to reduce pain after minimally invasive lung surgery (VATS). Researchers will test which approach works better for keeping you comfortable after your operation.
İzmitAges 18–80 - NCT06908538Recruiting
Cryo nerve block for pain after amputation
This study is testing a treatment called a cryo nerve block to reduce pain after amputation, including phantom limb pain. It will look at whether freezing the nerve during surgery helps people feel less pain and use less pain medicine.
Pittsfield, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03756961Recruiting
Opioid-free care plan for people having weight-loss surgery
This trial studies whether an opioid-free or opioid-sparing care pathway can improve comfort and outcomes for adults undergoing laparoscopic weight-loss surgery. It may help people avoid side effects from opioid pain medicines while still managing pain safely.
Lindesberg, Region ÖrebroAges 18 years+ - NCT07290582Recruiting
Nerve Pain Relief During Chest Wall Surgery Recovery
This trial tests a freezing technique applied to a nerve during minimally invasive chest wall surgery (Nuss procedure) to help reduce pain after the operation. The goal is to see if this approach helps children recover with less pain medication.
Bergamo, BGAges 14 years+ - NCT06139666Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Liposomal bupivacaine nerve block for rotator cuff surgery
This study tests whether a long-lasting numbing medicine called liposomal bupivacaine (Exparel) works better than standard pain relief for people having rotator cuff surgery. It aims to lessen pain after surgery so you may need fewer pain pills.
Camden, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT03365908Enrolling by invitation
Pain Management After ACL Reconstruction Surgery
This study looks at ways to manage pain in adults who are getting surgery to repair a torn ACL (a knee ligament). It may help improve comfort and recovery after ACL reconstruction.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–45 - NCT06075004Recruiting
Hip pain relief study comparing two injection methods
This trial tests two ways to give pain medicine around the hip joint during surgery to see which provides better pain relief. It may help patients experience less pain after hip replacement.
Santiago, Santiago MetropolitanAges 18–80 - NCT06486246Recruiting
Nerve block options for ACL surgery recovery
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks for pain relief after ACL reconstruction. It aims to find which approach provides better comfort and faster recovery.
BarcelonaAges 18–50 - NCT06840262Recruiting
Nerve surgery for pain after cancer amputation
This study tests two surgical techniques—target muscle re-innervation and regenerative peripheral nerve interfaces—alone or together, to help reduce pain felt in the remaining limb or the missing limb (phantom pain) after amputation for cancer. The goal is to find the best way to manage pain and improve quality of life.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06069154Enrolling by invitation
Freezing nerves for rib fracture pain
This study tests a procedure called cryoneurolysis, which uses cold to temporarily freeze nerves near broken ribs to relieve pain. It is for adults who have 1 to 6 recently broken ribs with at least moderate pain and are already getting a nerve block injection.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05461092RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Nerve blocks to improve pain control after spinal fusion
This early-stage study tests whether a regional nerve block can improve pain control and recovery for older adults having elective lumbar spinal fusion. If you qualify, you may receive a special pain-control injection during surgery to reduce opioid needs and improve recovery comfort.
Iowa City, IowaAges 65 years+ - NCT06568770RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Comparing two nerve blocks for femur fracture surgery pain
This trial tests if one type of nerve block (PENG block) works better than another (S-FICB) for controlling pain during and after femur fracture surgery. Both blocks are guided by ultrasound to help with your recovery.
Sahiwal, Punjab ProvinceAges 20–70 - NCT05661903RecruitingPhase 2
Spinal cord stimulator study for nerve pain and brain effects
This Phase 2 study looks at how spinal cord (or nerve-root) stimulation affects pain signals in the brain and body. You may qualify if you already have a stimulator set to a comfort mode that avoids “tingling” sensations.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–80 - NCT06243718Recruiting
Surgery for paralyzed diaphragm nerve
This trial looks at how patients feel and recover after surgery to fix the nerve that controls the diaphragm. It aims to learn about people's experiences to improve care for diaphragmatic paralysis.
Red Bank, New JerseyAges 18–70 - NCT06515691Recruiting
Nerve block for pain after weight loss surgery
This study tests a nerve block (an injection near the nerves) to see if it helps reduce pain after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. The block is called a modified thoracoabdominal nerve plane block, and it may lead to better pain control and recovery.
Istanbul, BagcilarAges 18–65 - NCT05865327Recruiting
Nerve freezing for rib-fracture pain using ultrasound guidance
This trial tests whether freezing a specific nerve (a “cryoneurolysis” treatment) through a catheter can better control pain from traumatic rib fractures. It’s offered to adults who have rib fractures soon after hospital admission and can use a pain control method called patient-controlled regional analgesia.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–100 - NCT05672784Recruiting
Knee numbing injections during knee replacement surgery
This trial compares two ways of numbing a knee area during planned knee replacement surgery: a nerve block alone versus a nerve block plus additional numbing medicine near the back of the knee. It may help doctors find which approach improves pain control and recovery while keeping side effects low.
ZagazigAges 21–60 - NCT05748015Recruiting
Checking how the nervous system is affected in multiple sclerosis
This study looks at signs of how your automatic “control” nerves (the autonomic nervous system) may be affected in people with multiple sclerosis. It may help researchers better understand different types of MS and how to recognize nervous-system involvement.
Telese Terme, BeneventoAges 18 years+ - NCT06539793Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for fibromyalgia pain
This trial tests if a gentle nerve stimulation treatment can reduce pain and improve daily function in people with fibromyalgia. It aims to understand how treatment affects natural pain signals.
Sadat, MenoufiaAges 25–35 - NCT07614945Recruiting
Reflexology for Pain and Sleep in Fibromyalgia
This study tests whether reflexology—a massage technique applied to specific points on the feet and hands—can help reduce pain and improve sleep in women with fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia causes widespread muscle pain and sleep problems, and this trial explores whether reflexology might offer relief.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 224 recruiting pain, nerve 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 pain, nerve 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 pain, nerve 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.
