This study tests whether a new pain medication called TRD205 works well and is safe for people recovering from hip replacement surgery. If it works, it could offer better pain control after your operation.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06966518Recruiting
Ketamine and magnesium for pain control after nose surgery
This study tests whether giving a combination of two medicines (ketamine and magnesium sulfate) during nose surgery can help reduce pain after the operation. It may be a good option for healthy adults having rhinoplasty and looking for better pain control.
CairoAges 18–65 - NCT06752252Recruiting
Nerve blocks for pain after hernia repair in children

El SharkiaAges 2–12 - NCT07587320Recruiting
Nerve Blocks for Pain Relief After Heart Bypass Surgery
This trial tests a new pain-management technique using nerve blocks (numbing medicine injected near nerves) to help reduce pain and opioid use after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), a common heart surgery. The goal is to help you recover more comfortably with fewer strong pain medications.

Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT07272577Recruiting
Nerve block for pain after laparoscopic abdominal surgery
This study tests a nerve block (erector spinae plane block) to see if it helps reduce pain after laparoscopic abdominal surgery. If you're having keyhole surgery, you may receive the block along with standard anesthesia.
AsyutAges 18 years+ - NCT07412522Recruiting
Pain relief injection for minimally invasive heart bypass surgery

IstanbulAges 18–75 - NCT07697222Recruiting
Pain block comparison for pectus excavatum repair
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks to control pain after a minimally invasive surgery to fix a sunken chest. It aims to see which block works better for recovery.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 15–25 - NCT07602452Recruiting
Pain Relief Methods After Colorectal Surgery
This study compares two different numbing techniques (nerve blocks) to help manage pain after open colorectal surgery. Both methods are injected near muscles in your abdomen to reduce the need for strong painkillers after surgery.
CairoAges 18–75 - NCT07139522Recruiting
Dexamethasone or magnesium for pain relief after C-section
This trial tests adding dexamethasone or magnesium sulfate to the numbing medicine given as a back injection (erector spinae plane block) to see if it provides better pain relief after a planned C-section. The goal is to reduce pain and the need for extra painkillers after surgery.
CairoAges 18–35 - NCT06905340Recruiting
Pain-guided opioid use during surgery with regional anesthesia
This trial uses a special monitor (NOL index) to help doctors give just the right amount of pain medicine during surgery. It is for people having trauma or orthopedic surgery who are also getting regional anesthesia.
HamburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06716359Enrolling by invitation

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for postoperative analgesia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 175 recruiting postoperative analgesia 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 postoperative analgesia 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 postoperative analgesia 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.
