SakaryaAges 18–65 - NCT07720739Recruiting
Adding morphine to a spine block for belly surgery pain
This study tests whether adding a small dose of morphine to a numbing injection near the spine (called erector spinae plane block) provides better pain relief after midline belly surgery. It may help reduce the need for other pain medicines and improve recovery.
SohagAges 18–60 - NCT07709598RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
HL-1186 for pain after abdominal surgery
This study tests a new painkiller called HL-1186 for people having abdominal surgery. If you qualify and enroll, you will receive the drug after surgery to see if it safely helps reduce your pain better than a placebo (a pill with no medicine).
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT07699601RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing a pain tablet after orthopedic surgery
This trial tests an investigational tablet called HL-1186 for controlling pain after orthopedic surgery. It explores whether the drug can safely reduce moderate to severe pain when given after the procedure.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–75 - NCT05272280Recruiting
Ultrasound nerve blocks for pain after gallbladder surgery
This trial compares two ultrasound-guided nerve block techniques to control pain after laparoscopic gallbladder (cholecystectomy) surgery. It may help by finding which method gives better pain relief with fewer side effects.
Asyut, Assiut, Asyut Governorate, Egypt,Ages 18–65 - NCT07370428Recruiting
Numbing injection for pain relief after lower back surgery
This study tests whether an ultrasound-guided numbing injection near the hip area can provide better pain relief after lower back surgery. If you qualify, you may receive this injection to help control pain after your operation.
BursaAges 18–65 - NCT07051109Recruiting
Dual-chamber pain pump for recovery after weight-loss surgery
This trial tests a dual-chamber patient-controlled pain pump after weight-loss surgery. It may help women have better pain relief and recovery.
Seongnam-si, Gyunggi-doAges 19–65 - NCT03489499Recruiting
Genetic testing study of pain after planned surgery
This study looks at whether genetic differences can help predict how much pain you may have after an elective (planned) operation. If you qualify, you may be asked to give consent and share information so researchers can compare pain experiences across people.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT06598852Recruiting
Nerve block pain relief methods for chest surgery
This trial compares different nerve block techniques to see which provides better pain relief after thoracoscopic (chest scope) surgery. It could help find a way to reduce pain and minimize opioid use during recovery.

Pain relief methods for hip fracture surgery
This trial compares two different nerve-block techniques (pain-relief injections) to see which one works better for patients having surgery to repair a broken hip. Both methods numb the area around the hip so you feel less pain during and after surgery.
Erzincan, Merkez/TürkiyeAges 18–75 - NCT06845215Recruiting

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.
