Compare two pain block methods for hip replacement surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This trial studies whether one type of numbing injection (a PENG block) works better than another method (local anesthetic injected into the surgical area) to control pain during and after total hip replacement. It may help choose the best pain plan for people having a specific surgical approach.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re over 18 years old and having a total hip replacement (THA)
- Your surgeon plans a direct lateral (transgluteal) approach for the operation
- You can understand and sign (or give) consent for the study
- You do not have a reason you cannot safely receive spinal anesthesia
- You are not having a direct anterior approach or a hip revision surgery
- You are not pregnant, and you are able to straighten the knee on the operated side

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial compares two ways to manage pain after hip replacement surgery: a targeted nerve block around the hip versus a small dose of morphine given through the spinal anesthesia. The goal is to see which method provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This study compares two different nerve block techniques to manage pain after a total hip replacement. The goal is to find out which method provides better pain relief and recovery.
This trial tests three ways of doing a PENG block (a type of pain relief injection for hip surgery) with or without added medications (adjuvants) to see which works best for older adults. It aims to improve pain control and reduce the need for other pain medicines after surgery.
This study tests two different types of local numbing medicine (with and without extra additives) for a nerve block called PENG block in older adults having hip surgery. The goal is to find which method controls pain better and reduces the need for strong pain relievers.
This study tests whether adding an extra nerve block (called a PPD block) to a standard PENG nerve block provides better pain relief after hip replacement surgery. It may help reduce pain and the need for strong painkillers after the operation.
This trial compares two pain-relief methods after hip replacement surgery: a nerve block (numbing the hip area) versus a numbing injection into the wound. The goal is to see which provides better pain control.
