Erector spinae plane block clinical trials

The Prediction of Clinical Outcome Using the Serum BDNF Level

Pain block comparison for recovery after liver surgery

This study compares two types of pain-relieving nerve blocks used during liver surgery to see which one helps you breathe better and recover more comfortably after the operation.

Comparing two pain blocks for children having testicle surgery

This study compares two pain-relief techniques (erector spinae plane block vs. caudal block) in children aged 1 to 7 years undergoing orchiopexy (surgery for an undescended testicle). The goal is to see which method provides better pain control after surgery. Your child must be generally healthy and meet specific criteria to participate.

Nerve block comparison for lung function after gallbladder surgery

This trial compares two types of nerve blocks to see which one better preserves lung function after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. It may help patients recover breathing ability more quickly after surgery.

Pain block choices for arm surgery

This study compares two numbing methods for arm surgery to see which one works better for pain relief. It might help you have less pain during and after surgery.

Comparing two nerve blocks for chronic pain after breast surgery

This study tests two types of nerve blocks (SPSIP and ESP blocks) to see which one works better for long-term pain after a single-sided breast surgery like mastectomy. It aims to find a safer, more effective way to manage chronic pain after surgery.

Comparing numbing blocks for breast surgery

This study compares three ways of numbing the chest muscle and rib area with ultrasound during breast surgery to see which one works best for pain control. If you are having breast surgery and want to help improve pain management, this might be a good fit.

Erector spinae pain-block during lumbar fusion surgery

This study tests whether a numbing pain-block in a specific back muscle area (called an “erector spinae plane block”) can improve comfort during lumbar spinal fusion surgery. You might be eligible if you need this type of back surgery and can safely receive the numbing medicine.

Nerve block to reduce pain after kidney stone surgery

This trial tests whether an “ESP block” (a targeted local anesthetic injection near nerves) works better than standard care to control pain after percutaneous kidney stone removal. If it helps with pain, it could reduce the need for stronger pain medicines after surgery.

Comparing pain relief and blood flow during back injections

This study tests a new way to give a pain-relieving injection for lower back problems. If you have ongoing back pain from a disc, narrowing, or slipped bone, this treatment may help reduce your pain.

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.

Nerve Block Techniques for Upper Back Surgery Pain

This trial compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) used during upper back spine surgery to see which one works better for pain relief. Both techniques are already used in surgery; this study tests which may be more effective.

Pain relief methods after hysterectomy: a recovery comparison

This study compares two different ways to manage pain after abdominal hysterectomy surgery. The goal is to see which method helps you recover better and feel more comfortable.

Regional anesthesia and shoulder surgery recovery outcomes

This study compares different numbing techniques used during shoulder arthroscopy (a minimally invasive shoulder surgery) to see which one helps patients recover better, use less pain medication, and experience fewer complications like temporary paralysis of the breathing muscle under the rib cage.

Pain Relief Methods for Hip Replacement Surgery

This trial compares two nerve-blocking techniques to reduce pain after hip replacement surgery. Both methods use numbing medication around specific areas near your hip to help you feel more comfortable after the operation.

Nerve blocks for pain relief during tummy tuck surgery

This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (with numbing medicine) to reduce pain during and after tummy tuck surgery. The goal is to see if combining two blocks works better than one block alone.

Patient position and pain relief from ESPB block

This trial tests whether the position of patients during a nerve block (ESPB) affects pain relief after video-assisted lung surgery. It aims to find the best way to give the block for better comfort after surgery.

Nerve block comparison for mastectomy pain relief

This trial compares two types of nerve blocks to help manage pain during and after modified radical mastectomy. You may qualify if you are a woman between 18 and 65, have a healthy weight, and are scheduled for this surgery.

Nerve blocks for pain after chest surgery

This trial tests two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) to control pain after chest surgery done with a camera. It aims to find which block works better so you can recover more comfortably.

Nerve blocks for older adults having hip replacement surgery

This trial tests two types of nerve blocks to see which one works better for pain control in older adults undergoing total hip replacement. A nerve block is a shot of anesthetic near a nerve to numb a specific area, and the goal is to help you feel less pain after surgery.

Using heat camera to predict nerve block success in child hernia surgery

This study tests if a special heat-sensing camera can predict whether a nerve block will work for children having hernia surgery. If successful, this could help doctors know right away if the block is effective.

Pain relief methods for kids having umbilical hernia surgery

This study compares three types of ultrasound-guided nerve blocks to see which one provides the best pain relief for children after umbilical hernia repair. The goal is to find a safe and effective way to manage pain in young patients.

Comparing two nerve blocks for lumbar disc surgery pain

This trial tests two types of nerve blocks to see which one works better for pain control after lumbar disc surgery. It may help reduce pain and the need for strong pain medicines after your operation.

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.
